Default Re: A Nicky Camaro In NJ

Haven't been to the Chevy/Vettefest in a few years, but do recall a turquoise Nickey Camaro w/a yellow block in the Chicago area.

First saw this car at a show at a drive-in theater in Waukegan around '82, or so. It was later traded to an area service station owner for a '66 427/425 'Vette. Subsequently, it was owned by a fairly noted local auto painter. Don't know the car's current whereabouts.

Not positive that this car is legit, but it was always rep'd as a Nickey even before it mattered all that much. Oh, and the body shop guy was (and probably still is) a reasonably thorough individual and I doubt he'd have stepped up if it wasn't the real deal.

Oh, and did I mention that the block was yellow?
