I've browsed all 1967 and 1968 issues and found nothing. Was it published after 1970 ?

Apparently, I mixed up the source magazine. It was certainly published in the other (well known) magazine in 1967.
Sorry. I locked for you.

"The one-and-only Hanesmobile was built by Francis P. Hanes, a Vicksburg, Miss., electronics engineer, and D.C. Blake, a friend. At right is its 50-amp battery, one-hp. motor. The ticket writing is a gag."
