This is pretty neat. I spent some time talking to Bill Keck at Bloomington and they are really cool.
A "little birdie" tells me there may be a Very Special version premiering at Chevy Vettefest!

Bob Auxier, Ron Keck, Ronnie Kaplan, Don Swiatek and the Thomas' will be working on a possible Nickey Edition Cheetah, to be debuted at the upcoming Fall Vette Fest this November 18-19th.
Bill Thomas was commissioned to build a race car which could beat the competition, back in the day, mainly the Shelby Cobras. While Cheetahs were few and far between, they were and are very competitive race cars.
A Continuation Cheetah also took a class second place at the Road America Concourse. While a non descript black driver vehicle took the over all best of best honors. I believe it belongs to a member????
