L72copo,sorry for the misinformation.But I do recall seeing ``Nickey built 427 Impala``next to a photo of the car a few years back in Super Chevy.Awesome car though with the black paint,small hub caps,blackwall tires.Sort of a ``Dirty Mary crazy Larry``special but with two doors instead of four.

I wanted to respond to these posts since I own the car that everyone is talking about. I did buy the car from Nick at Golden Classics and have dealt with him the past. I have always been very happy with the cars I have bought and was shocked to read the postings that the cars he sells may be questionable.
When I purchased the car it was conveyed to me as an excellent replica, possibly an original. I have been able to trace the heritage back to the original title that was held in Chicago. With all the original parts in it that are unreplacablely Nicky and the origin being Chicago, we are sure it is an original. Without the paper work to back it up, we are selling it as an Excellent Replica. The price is very reasonable, particularly if it turns out to be an original down the road, when we all know they can go for over $100,000.00. Please feel free to email me back with any further questions regarding the car. HLZ |

This is a good place to justify why you think it is a real Nickey. What parts are "unreplaceably Nicky"?

"the cars he sells may be questionable" !?!?!?
The cars he sells are unquestionably some of the worst fakes/clones/scams that exist in the market. It's kind of fun to go there and listen to the salespeople impress prospective buyers with their infinite knowledge, want to go for a daytrip MikeA?? M

I have been visiting this site for several months and I have to respond to all this dealership bashing and bitching. This makes me sick to see a great site like this go to the toilet because of a bunch of guys who seem to have it out for one particular dealer. Why? What about all the other classic car dealers in the USA? I have seen some real over priced junk at some of these other places. Mike A, when was the last time you were at that dealer? A lot of the cars they have there now are killer! Are you jealous of the cars they have? What about the rest of you? Are you all talking from experience or just from "what you heard"? Not everyone can afford a $100,000 supercar. Mike, I see you own a mid to later 70's NOVA, not even a car from the best era of the muscle cars. Looks like a nice car, but its what you can afford. THATS THE POINT! Buy what you can afford! I'd love to buy a real nice true Yenko, but I can't. I'll take a clone for $35,000, if it is everything a real Yenko is for a third of the price just because it wasn't built by Don Yenko himself. I went to the very dealer you are questioning today after reading these postings on this Nickey Camaro and I have never seen a collection of cars like this at any other classic car shop anywhere around here. I have visited many shops in New Jersey, Maryland, Ohio, CT, FL, etc. Those guys really get some of the best cars I have ever seen! They have had a few clones there, but I have never been mislead that they were real. They had told me straight out that the Nickey was a replica and thats how it was to be sold. They also told me what this gentleman was saying about researching the past on this car. HELLO PEOPLE, they only can tell you what information that owners of the cars tell them! I also remember a few cars they took to Atlantic City last year. Yes, one was a Yenko Clone and the other was a ZL1 replica. If the guy there did not tell me they were clones, I would have never known. He was truthful and stated that they were replica's, and very well built. Again, no problems, no lies. The amount of CLEAN frame off cars in one location was impressive. Sure, they have some not so restored cars, but again, they truthfully told me about them and never tried to do me wrong. Before you all start to bad mouth a business, go there and see for yourself like I did. I wanted to post something a few days ago, but I wanted to see with my own eyes how they operated and what quality of cars they had in stock first hand, knowing what was said here. I would think that if the rest of you did the same, you will see high quality cars with people who are honest about the product they sell. Take my comments for what you will, but I at least can gather my own opinions on fact from a dealer that treated me, with respect and honesty. Thank you for the forum to express my thoughts. Jon

Muscle Car Jon,
Here is one example of Golden Classic's "representations." Take a look at the photos and then talk to this guy or email him. he will tell you all about his experience. Copy the url and paste it into your url window, or someone help me make this a clickable link... http://www.cars-on-line.com/68chev5581.html This is not just misrepresentation it is illegal... JB |
