So is this a *real* Nickey car?

Went to a local car show this weekend...saw this car. So is this a re-creation or the real deal...and how can you tell? Does anyone know anything about it? Good looking car either way....More pics here: (http://www.w-machines.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=5300)

Wow...a bunch of nice shots Josh!

Josh, you must be a local boy. I've seen that car before, but not close up. The people I asked said it wasn't. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif The boss 429 is my daughter in laws dad's car. He bought it from his dad, who bought it new. Very cool car, as much as I hate to say that about a Ford.

Yup Im a local... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Les is a heckova nice guy.....I understand he has 4+ 69/70 Boss 429's they are all beautiful cars....and yes...pretty frickin cool...even if it is a blue oval...

As for the Camaro....its a late 67 (12E) SS/RS.
I thought that most of the Supercars started out that way (at least in 67)...as SS350 cars...past that I have no idea how to tell.

I overheard things at the show...but never talked to the owner...so cant say if he says it is a real Nickey either...

Thanks for the comment Bruce...glag you enjoyed them.

I would have stayed with the flat hood and kept the spoiler off. But then I think the Black Vinyl top should have stayed as well. And loose the caution fan sticker!

Good thing you went to the eye doctor today, that's Les Baer standing behind the boss. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

When did Les get a red one? Geez, you can't keep up with him. What's that make, 4 boss 429s? He's got some very nice hemi E bodies too. Les owns Les Baer cusrom firearms. Builds those sniper rifles that can reach out and touch you a long ways away. And your right. He's a very nice guy.
Doc says my eyes are just fine. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif I was lookin at the car. Never saw Les


Doc said my eyes ain't that bad. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
