"Wacky Races" by Hoyt S. Curtin
I may be wrong but are you thinking of Wacky Racers?
I belive you are referring to Dick Dastardly and his sidekick Muttley from the Wacky racers. Hana Barbara, circa 1970
Mutley from the Wacky Racers had a rotor tail, but it wasn't in the 1950's though. It was the late 60's.
Mr. Peevely was a character in the animated series "Wacky Races." He was the owner and sponsor of the Gruesome Twosome, a racing team that competed against other zany racers in the series. Mr. Peevely was known for his strict and serious demeanor, often being a foil to the wacky antics of his team members.
