1970 Nickey Nova
 

I have seen many and know many Chicago Area Muscle Cars......but it`s always neat to see one I have never seen before.

The current owner is the second owner of this Nickey Nova, he purchased it in 1973 from the original owner. Original owner is still alive today. A real Shadow Gray paint Nova. Even the wheels are still the same wheels as purchased in 1973.

Not too many 17-17 Code Shadow Gray Nova`s out there......if this is a Real Nickey Nova....I`d say it`s safe to say it`s the ONLY Shadow Gray Nickey Nova.

SO COOL!

Neat..looks good with those wheels...couldn't quite read the cowl tag date..thinking it might be an early car with those T-clips holding the radiator flap....most 70's have the buttons. Or maybe they were changed at some point??

Thanks for the Nova pics Dan,always good to see Novas.Looks like a nice car.My survivor 70 BB is a 01C built car with the plastic buttons holding the flap down.I find it interesting with the T-clips also.

That car & owner come to Downers Grove a lot.

Re: 1970 Nickey Nova
 

that is a nice car! Would be even nicer if the owner would clean it up a little. Nova's get no respect!

Sam, cut the guy some slack......at least he's driving it.

The story is that he purchased the car from a NicKey Chevrolet Mechanic in 1976-77 for $1,800.00 againts and asking price of $2,200.00. He said the mechanic also had a '73 SD TA, and one toy had to go. He also said that the car is very much like he purchased it back then.

I always admire people that drive their cars no matter how nice or how expensive they are. No lawn ornaments is my opinion.

Is this a Nickey sold car or a Nickey modified car?
