Default Re: 70 1/2 Z28 from Nickey

Darren,
It was warm and dry enough to Cruise this past weekend. I figured that I would see a certain Rallye Green Z28 roaming around the neighborhood.

I spent some personal time with the Nickey Z28 and got it running, even put a few miles on it. Talk about a time warp [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

You won't catch me out until it rains for a couple of days and washes the salt away. Heck, you could have come by and picked me up. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img] Hey, I forgot to ask what color the Nickey is?

Stefano,

That's great news to hear that you got it running and on the road [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] The way it looked in that garage it was kinda iffy. I bet it blew a little rust out of those header mufflers [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

Darren,

I think all the salt is off the roads here today [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/ooo.gif[/img]

Bill,
It cleared up quickly but needs a tune up and carb rebuild.

We will have this Nickey "Tuned" Z28 on display at the March 3-4 Vette Fest.

Whoah! That car is gorgeous! What's it's history? And, as always, more pics would be great...for those of us who can't make it to Vettefest.

Stefano, where can a guy get a license plate like the one in the picture? I know we discussed it on the phone when I ordered the stuff for dad for Christmas but you did not have them available at the time.
