Default More pics from Spring Vettefest 2008

Made it to Vettefest today and didn't take many pics because I was busy talking to so many people that I knew....but I did manage a few shots so here they are in no particular order

Met up with my friend Steve Bimbi of Nickey Chicago and as always, he had quite a stunning aray of cars there today. Let me just say that if any of you here are ever thinking of buying a car from Steve, do not hesitate or worry...Steve sells some of the finest cars in the business and if you buy a car from him, you'll be getting a top notch car that will only appreciate with time.

This was one of Steve's cars and in my opinion one of the coolest cars at the fest today...1966 Biscayne converted at Nickey Chicago...black with red interior, vintage Tork Thrust wheels, and a big ole 427 under the hood. A very cool car!








He also had another Biscayne very nicely done but the black one was my personal favorite. Gotta just love those post sedans huh Dan





Also an equally impressive 1967 Z28





1967 Corvette 427 tri power roadster



And the"Nickey" Cheetah



This was a very impressive 1967 SS 427 Impala convert!









I believe this was Rick Pauly's latest... a stunning 1970 Chevelle LS6 convert. Beautiful car Rick...nicely done!!!



And last but certainly not least, one of the cars I specifically went to see, Albert Galdi's 1969 COPO Chevelle. Pictures and words simply don't do this car justice, you really need to see this car in person to appreciate the quality workmanship that went into restoring this car...simply one of the most stunning Chevelles I've ever seen!





Al, I really enjoyed meeting you today and talking with you...your workmanship is second to none, and I can't wait to see the Burnished Brown Chevelle you are working on now!

Ken Tibor.....sorry I missed you today bud...I looked for you but never could find you....you must have been hiding out with Wilma today! Next time Ken!

that Impala was sold new here in South Bend and spent its whole life here until last Augest.

Rick Nelson did the Chevelle convert.

The Misty Turquoise LS6 Convert is Rick Nelson's latest. I sure wish it was mine!

Careful Dan, somebody that doesn't know us may take that literally.
