Yes, one and the same. Formerly known as the "Prez"...president of the now defunct U.R.C.C.; That's Uncle Ron's Camaro Club. He disbanded the club...I was the only member!

For that, you can bet when I start a club, he won't be invited. Having separate clubs and your own show(s) is the only way to fly. But I will invite the new owner of this Nickey Z-28.

The car was local to Ron when he had his shop in McHenry. This guy started showing up at Ron's shop with rosewood wheels, mint exhaust manifolds, etc. It turns out the guy had the burgundy Nickey z, orange RSZ with white interior and the prototype crossram/hood from Wayne Guinn and a bunch of other stuff.
He liked the houndstooth interior so he added that to the burgandy z. The car had the original protect-o-plate showing Nickey as the selling dealer. One odd thing was that the car was missing the left framerail exhaust hanger plate. It looked like one was never welded to the frame from the factory. The car looks great done.

Wrong there, little fella ...he and I are good 'buds' and he wants to be treasurer of the new club. He'll need to have his hands on a lot of $$ to pay for this ride.

Not sure, but I would guess about $70,000. Ron's a very nice guy and takes great care of closest, dearest friends.

Not to bad for a 69 Z/28 with slight mods done to it. Wonder what a Yenko or DANA tuned 69 Z/28 would sell for then.
