Re: 1967 Nickey Z28s
The TransAm program was cancelled for a variety of reasons. First and foremost were business conditions. About this time, Nickey began a long downhill run toward insolvency. Another factor was that Bill Thomas and Nickey were not getting along as well as many people think. A third was Nickey's realization that road racing was not the choice of its core base of customers. Hot Rod parts were where it was at and the money required to road race (my father's preferred racing) was no longer worth the return. The Camaro funny car suffered the same fate. Budget.
