There was a Datsun pick up, with Chevy power, called "American Rick-shaw."

The Datson "American Ric-shaw" was a super gas w/chevy power owned by
the auto shop teacher at my kids old high school University High in Irvine, CA.
he later moved up to a dragster and used to bring it into the shop at school.

Let's not leave out Herb Mccandless the original "Mr. 4 Speed", and Ronnie Sox who had alot of Pro Stockers named as "The Boss", and the Little Boss. Incedentally Herb and Ronnie were my boyhood heroes, while growing up, watching Drag Racing since I was 10 years old. Dandy Dick Landy worked the other side of the aisle for Dodge. Plus many many more. See ya at the races, Frank Hamer Jr.

My dad used that name on his 65 hemi car, his 67 car and his 68 dart. A man by the name of John Moore gave him that name when he drove a CHEBBY Nomad wagon in 64.
