July 4 2005: For the first time in decades, wheel-kit Scorpions graced the hometown Fourth of July parade where eleven floats joined forces to promote the upcoming Scorpion Homecoming, 2006. Former plant manager Nunny Vukelich (shown above) joined forces with former Scorpion racer and dealer Les Pinz atop two original (and loud) racing machines. Nunny drove a 1970 297cc Sachs modified while Les throttled a 1970 440cc Hirth modified Stinger (with a hood specially built for the 1970 race team). The firm's early air-sleds were also featured along with several former employees. Image courtesy Crosby-Ironton Courier. See Terms of use. Link to Home.
