Ok here is a tough one, I think? The Bill Thomas building in Anaheim California had two signs displayed in the shape of the Crests above. On one side of his shop was the Nickey Chicago Crest and on the other side the BTRC crest.

I believe that you had to walk under the Nickey crest in order to enter the building, other than using a garage door.

Does anyone have a picture of this?

Unbeatable team involved there ! All you had to do to order your Nickey Camaro was pick up the phone and call Dick Harrell !!! Things were just a tad simpler and cooler then. Wonder if you could pick up the phone and call Warren Johnson and pick up anything today !!

Ad also says: "Dickie Harrell will be at Nickey's all year round (except on race days) to help you select the proper parts and equipment for your car."

Uhh, Mr. Harrell, I was wondering if the Offenhauser dual Quadrajet intake for 396-427s is the hot tip for the street?

(Honest, there's an Offy dual Q-jet intake on the parts list!)
