Re: 1969 Nickey Pics as found in woods?????

Re: 1969 Nickey Pics as found in woods?????
I am not near the car tonight so I will check tomorrow and see what I can find. What about the emblems and ideas on those. I am aware they could have maybe purchased them. Are they similar to the ones used on the Nickey cars?
Also does the vin# number tell you guys anything on the car?

Take a picture of the engine stamp on the front passenger side of the motor right in front of the head and also take one straight down showing the steering box and linkage...

Re: 1969 Nickey Pics as found in woods?????
The emblems look like the ones that would have been installed on a 1967 427 Impala, so I can see them using the emblems, but anyone could go to a dealership and order them from the parts dept. I'm not saying this was the case with this car but you need more evidence like the engine pad info, casting numbers on the back of the block, what heads are on the motor, intake, etc. With no paperwork and no way to look at the cars history (THANK YOU HOMELAND SECURITY), its going to take a deeper look at the characteristics of this particular car...

Re: 1969 Nickey Pics as found in woods?????
The prior owner states that the motor in the car is a 396. I think I may have confused you guys on that earlier. The 427 is supposedly not in the car. He bought the car from his brother with the motor out. He stated that his brother offered him $16,000 to buy the car back.
 Back when the car was running with the 396 in it not the way it is now. The brother is gone. I mean way gone. In that the case the motor won't tell us anything right?

Re: 1969 Nickey Pics as found in woods?????
Can someone run the Vin through the NICS or NCIS whatever...
To see which dealer it went to? That could cut out a lot of confusion... REAL QUICKLY
