well worth the trip from ANYWHERE in the country.......or world for that matter. i live near rosemont and went to new jersey to pick up the Y-chevelle from chris short, just to drive back to illinois for this show. i havent been excited about bringing a car/cars to a Vettefest since 1987!!!!!! if that doesnt say something about the way Bob and the guys from Championship Autoshows have turned this show around, i dont know what does. i may take some pics from the time we arrive at the staging area to the time we leave, to show everyone that is hesitant about bringing cars to Vettefest how enjoyable and easy it really is. again Bob, great job so far for all the showcases that you and others have lined up !!

Thanks Jeff, as I have said several times, I feel honored to be among the best guys and ladies in the hobby, yourself included!

I can't do any of this without the support of guys (actually families!) like you and the rest of my sYc Family. Geez, it may sound sappy, but I do consider many of you "family".

The truck is loaded and I will be headed down 94 early tomorrow morning. I have several live radio interviews which I will be making from the road and for everyone in the Chicago area, watch WGN tomorrow, (Tuesday) you'll be seeing some familiar faces and some familiar cars!


I'm off!

And...another teaser for your;

I don't want to steal all of the thunder from Stefano, but I know he has some really cool stuff in store for us also.

Obviously the Big News is the Official Launch of the new Gen 5 Nickey Camaro.

Following the "Back In The Day" Formula that put Nickey on the map, they will be offering Stage I, Stage II and Stage III variations. I'll let Steve and the crew fill in the blanks.

Steve has many things planned for the Nickey display including having the engine builders who are handling this new project, samples of some of the engine parts and interior information, lots of specifications, ordering information and even a new Gen 5 Nickey T-Shirt. Many of the people that Nickey Chicago has working on this project will bet on hand to give you all of the details. This is history in the making!

In addition to this, Mr. Bimbi is hosting Floyd Garrett, who will be premiering his latest restoration, a 1962 Bubble Top RED/RED 409 that is sure to be a show stopper. We look forward to having Mr. Floyd as a part of the show for many years to come!

Other cars in the Nickey display;
1. a 67 427 Corvette Roadster
2. a 69 Yenko Chevelle
3. The one and only 02 1000+ hp Nickey Camaro
4. A particular Nickey inspired Nova
5. The "Nova On A Sunday" Racer
6. a Black on Black 69 Z/28

Well, I wont tell you all of them, but suffice it to say, each one is a show stopper.

Our Thanks go to Stefano Bimbi for being a huge part of the successful re-birth of the Chevy Vettefest.

It aint the "same-old/same-old" show, now is it?

PLEASE: Tell your friends to join us November 22-23 and help me to knock this one "out of the park!"
