Nickey Chicago parts book

[1969l78]

I just got this book from the guy who bought it in 69. It shows all the options for a nickey camaro, its a 51 page book. Neat book, also has a ton of parts and engines for sale from Nickey in 69. Thought I would share. Wondering how rare they are?
Here are a few pics.

I was going to bid on that but it looked like Stefano was by the feedback number so I didn't, figured if he was bidding he needed it more than me. cool catalog!! good score in my eye http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

It is a neat little catalog. Has alot of cool add on parts and shows a lot of the nickey camaro options with prices.

I also have a 69 Nickey catalog sent to my address. Not only were the Camaro's with the L-72 mentioned, but there is also another page I find quite interesting. They are advertising the 302 cubic inch-290 hp Nova and Chevelle. Have any of these ever surfaced or known to exist?

Isn't there a maroon 302 prepped Nova outside of Champaign IL??

[Schonyenko2]

Geez Ray I guess we all must have ordered one of those. I have a couple with my address on them too. I always wondered about whether any of those 302 novas, and chevelles were sold. I don't recall ever seeing one.
I do remember some 302's finding there way into 66 67 Chevy lls. These were home built, not Nickey cars. Very impressive combination.

Ken,

Yea, there were a few of us always ordering this stuff, looking at what was offered, and dreaming at nights what we could have and afford? Many memories abound from those days, from all the speed shops and hi-performance dealers selling their products? By the way, You might be one who still has an "Honest Charley" catalog? Do You???

Smokey,

Interesting post. One would think there might have been a few built, though the BB might have been more popular in 69?

Maybe Stefano knows more...or heard more.

I seen it with my own eyes..but don't know if its real or fake. That was back in 02 or 03.
