COPO or Supercar Convertible

Local friend is pursuing the car but as of yet no definitive proof that it is real. He is a real pit-bull when it comes to tracking down docs and original owners (and their grandmothers). Price has gone up substantially. Can't remember exact amount, but if it is real it wasn't enuff and if it isn't real it was way too much.

This car was at our Shop/Nickey Chicago, for inspection last year. It is a nice driver quality car. It appears to be an Original small block SS.

There is a letter from a previous owner saying that he knows it is a Nickey. A tire receipt with what was to be the original owners info and a Nickey cataloge with the same individuals name on it.

Don Swiatek inspected the car and there was no proof, evidence what so ever that the car had been sold out of Nickey or Converted by Nickey.

This car is not included in the Nickey Registry at this time.

You guys are good. This the car I was fishing about. The current owner hasn't been able to convince me its real. I am just dumb enough to believe someone would be able to say "sure its a real Nickey and here is how I can prove it"
I guess he is never gonna be able to prove it either..??
Thanks Again Robert H.

Robert...Did the seller disclose to you that the car was inspected at Nickey last year and that they would not include it in the Nickey registry ?

If you want one just buy an original and chop the roof off, then you'll have the only real one around.(ooooooo im going to hear about this one).

Is'nt there some supercar vette roadsters around?
