Thanks Dennis. It's "buckskin", and, it's certainly different. When the hoods arrive, the final colors will be a bit different & painted on.

They are great driving & handling cars right from the factory. Once the various Nickey mods are complete, they will be awesome. The parts suppliers are the bottleneck right now, but, things are starting to arrive, so, Stefano has been able to get a few things changed on his which have made huge differences, It's tough to be patient after waiting since it was ordered in October, but, I just picked it up Wednesday from Denny Barker in Michigan. We had mine & Stefano's at a little cruise night last night, and, they were swarmed with people all night,both young & old. The most asked question was "how can I get one?" Stay tuned. I think things will really be cooking in the next few weeks.

Wow, cool. Stefano, is the Yellow one Bill Jelinek's? I did not know he was going to get one. Is he doing the paint work on them? I remember he was saying that his wife Debbie wanted a Challenger or Camaro.

Frank; check out the post in the Nickey section about the strategic partnership that Stefano and Bill have formed to build Pro Touring Nickey cars.
We will indeed be seeing some neat things from this.

Bill is working directly with us. He is the only dealer we have authorized and licensed to build and sell Nickey Super Camaros, as well as the g-Machine project.

Bill's car is a Stage II and getting a Pro-Charger.
Mike's Stage II power adder will be a Magnuson Super Charger.
Both Super Charged applications can produce 600fwhp and will be 50 state emissions legal as well as carry a 3/36 limited warranty.
Wegner has reported that the stock long block is safe at this power level.
I hope to have my Naturally Aspirated 427 engine installed for the Gibb show.

Thanks for the compliments. The color combo is pretty unique, so, people either love or hate the interior. I had to laugh during the Barrington cruise last night though. The feature "car" was Exotics, so, all the Italian & German expensive stuff showed up. People were walking right past those to look at the Camaro. The "exotic" guys didn't look too happy.

We can talk Bruce, but, the show will keep us pretty busy. By the way, to anyone who is looking at the picture & thinking the hood & fenders don't match, that is an optical illusion because of the glare. It is a perfect match. Kudos to Muscle Car Designs for getting the Red Jewel Tintcoat to match. It ain't easy.

This is an extra cost three Stage Color, much like the old "Candy" colors. It has amazing depth and just pops when the sun hits it.
