Default Re: Does anyone else build model cars ?

Actually it has documentation. I've followed this car for a long time since it was first found by Gene Schmidt. Gene found it many years ago with all the Nickey emblems and accessories etc. Gene is more well known for his Yenko's. I later tried to buy this Nickey after it went to Joe Lukason. This was about 5 or 6 years ago before Joe had it restored but he decided to keep it. Anyway it has the NICB report which shows it came new from GM to Nickey. It was inspected by Nickey's Don Swiatek who was in charge of building the Nickey's and he remembered this particular car and has verified it. Also Dave Delgado (Spelling?) who was one of the Nickey mechanics that built it has also verified it from looking at locations on the car where they did the Nickey modifications. I wish it was mine.
