Nickey -Yenkos

[JoeC]

In my opinion, the stripes had something to do with the cars being remembered as something special. The Yenkos and the Motion cars had distinctive stripes and seem to have some sort of advantage in notoriety. Nickey, Harrell, Gibb, Scuncio, Dana, Burger, Thomas, and others sold 427 cars but after a few years and an ownership change, they would blend into the population of modified cars. Even if the car went to a junk yard if it had stripes on it there was a better chance for it to be saved. IMO
