Default Re: A Nicky Camaro In NJ

Two years ago at the spring Chevy/Vettefest
a fellow showed his 1967 Nickey Camaro that he purchased new. It was well documented and in good shape. The thing that caught my attention was that is had a 1968 L71 Corvette motor in it. Low rise intake, temp senders on heads and all on a 1967 Camaro.
I spoke with him for a long time and finally asked him why a 68 engine in a 67 car. As the paperwork showed, he purchased the car in late September of 1967 and Nickey had a row of new 1968 model engines to choose from. The new low rise 1968 tri-power intake could fit under the hood and he chose that engine. I know that I would have questioned this on an undocumented car that had been through the mill but here was a logical explination as to why the car was delivered that way. The engine was painted yellow also.
