Steven J, I know a guy that SWEARS that him and his friend bought BRAND NEW 1969 427 Novas from Quality Chevrolet in Oak Lawn on the same day!

Thanks for all the Egizio info, I grew up down the street from their home and was good friends with Owen they are a nice family. Mr. Egizio at one time had a Corvette for every year and when a new one came out he would put it away, believe they were all upstairs at the dealership. I wonder what happened to all them cars, most had little or no miles on them.
I also have the paper work from my brothers Z28 wonder if it's still around also, it was traded in at a dealership further down Ogden Ave. in Downers Grove don't remember the name off hand.

And don't forget our Showcase at the next April 1 & 2, 2006 Chevy Vettefest at McCormick Place in Chicago. Along with some beautiful Supercars, we will be featuring the cars of Nickey Chevrolet along with a fantastic collection of Nickey memorabilia from the collection of Tom Stephani.

Tom S. will also be breaking out the historic Nickey Vinegaroon USRRC/Can Am Race Car!

Can't wait! For more info or to be a part of this special collection, get a hold of Tom Clarey!

I'd love to bring my Z Frank '67 Corvette to the Vettefest for the Triple Crown in fall of 2006.

I have heard that there is a stash like this somewhere near my home. Apparently a barn/garage/something filled with a new vette from every year. Could be the same person?
