Re: A Nicky Camaro In NJ
Jon, I agree with Charley and Brian about what this board does. It helps more people for free than hurts them.
The owner of the car in question made a post that he could not verify the car as a legit Nickey. So he was emailed with the name and phone number of a guy that could help him get his car verified. A prospective buyer called instead, stating the seller told him that he could verify the car. Why do something like that when if it was a legit car the price would have gone up 100%? To me the owner knows this car is not a legit car and he took a chance that the prospective buyer would buy the car and spend the money himself to get it verified and would find out it was bogus. The seller gets his money and the buyer has a very nice Nickey clone for $40k.
By doing this the seller not only ruined the sale to this buyer but ruined his chances or anyones chances of ever getting the car looked at to be verified. The one guy that can verify a Nickey Camaro, and he verified the Nickey Camaro that was at this years reunion plus a couple of other Nickey cars, will not even talk to anyone about verifying this car at Future Classics. The seller has ruined it for anyone wanting this done. All he had to do was contact the person that he was told to and he would have been able to decide for himself whether to have the car verified. All he did was make the contact person mad.
So Jon, is this the way business should be done? The owner/seller of the car ruining a possible sale plus any chance of getting this car verified as a legit Nickey? To me this car is bogus until the guy comes up with legit paperwork that the car was converted to a 427 at Nickey originally and is verified by all previous owners and it will still be questionable because of its known history here...................RatPack................
