Re: Clone Yenko on ebay is using fake picture!
I never stated it was a Nickey car,just a possibility going by what some have told me about the fender emblems.To my knowledge the car was not sold at Nickey but from Bud Moore Chevrolet in Houston.I was thinking it might be a possibility and possibility only that Bud Moore may have had it converted.I know from talking to some people that some dealers did this sort of thing(had cars converted) at least what I am told. Anyway it doesen't really matter too me if it is a real Nickey car or not, it would be nice if it was, I guess for the status of owning a real Supercar.But I never intend to sell the car regardless.I am going to put a few Nickey items on the car to make it a clone!! I will keep searching to find the true history of the car anyway.May or may not ever find out but when something new pops up I will check into it, I may never find the complete story of the car.But when I am finished with it I will send you guys some pictures of it. Should not be too much longer before she is complete just putting on some finishing touches.Regardless it will be a nice car Nickey or not.It will have a 396/375 hp specs,everything except the block is new,GM steel crank, H beam rods,crane solid lift cam,crane lifters,pro magnum pushrods,full roller rockers,keith black pistons,speed pro file fit rings,edelbrock aluminum heads, edelbrock aluminum intake,custom built Davinci Holley carb,center force dual friction clutch,new richmond 6 speed trans, custom built drive shaft,original gm 12 bolt 373 posi. Painted with PPG base coat clear coat, custom mix neon blue paint(just a little darker than marina blue with a bit of metalic)Car has been through a complete frame off restoration.Car is a real 138 car,buckets seats ,console factory air and factory power steering,I added front disc brakes just to slow her down a bit,I think you guys will like the pics I send you.BUT REMEMBER SHE IS A CLONE!!! And thanks for the information all you guys have supplied me with on supercars.I don't think there is a nicer bunch of folks anywhere than right here on the super car registry site.
