What Nickey conversion paperwork does the car have?

Neat pics. Did Nickey have 'Phases' to their modification packages, sort of like Motion?

Hey, that's a picture of my '70 Chevelle used as the background for that Certificate of Excellence (copied from Genat's book). First time I've seen or heard of one of those certificates.

This is the first time that Don Swaitek has made a certification up like this he usually only writes a letter to the people he said. He told me that he hade to do something different beacuse of what I found and I was thrilled when it came in the mail and I saw how nice it was done makes me proud.

Previously I had heard the car was sold new in Canada and then the 396 was swapped for a 427 at Nickey during the first year. Is that correct? Also, was the engine replacement the result of a warranty claim?

Thanks Stefano Looks like it was Stage instead of Phase, but same concept.
