John Gunnell just wrote an article, which is in the current issue of 'Old Cars Weekly'. The article includes a Vintage Pic, in front of the Nickey New Car Showroom, which shows a couple of 1958 Police Cars. You can also make out 4 Isettas in the back ground.

You can also see the "Two" Large Nickey Neon Signs. The one in the back ground has the the Backwards "K", while the other has the traditional "K".

You can also see part of the Painted Nickey sign on the Used Car Building. I believe "sixtiesmuscle" has that very sign in his collection.

Anyway, I just never knew that Nickey Sold Isettas. With gas prices the way they are, I want a Nickey Isetta for my cruise night car and I'll run it against Clill's for Pinks at the SCR.

Are you kidding? Do you know what it would cost Lillard to drive that thing from California? With gas at $4 a gallon, he's be out like ........ $30 for the trip!


(BTW, does the Gateway timing system go past 30 minutes? )

It is a shame that Steve doesn't get a chance to have some fun and really enjoy the auctions, since he is always working so hard!

Looks like that guy with him is a bad influence.
