Default Re: When did Nickey close?

The Nickey speedshop/service center on Milwaukee Ave. closed in the summer of 1976,(Chris S info).
At the Nickey Performace,The one time production figure of 375 in one year will probably never be duplicated,but boss Al Sealig expects a new yearly high of 50 to 60 units to emerge from his new shop.
At Nickey ,the LT1 350 is the popular engine .Here's one finding a new home in a Camaro.A6619 Holley and Headers provide a little extra HP and economy for the 370 HP engine.
Another pics of this 74 Camaro.

I would love to see how the engine was pulled and dropped back in with the hood still on. I have a hard enough time with the hood off doing it :P
