Davis Automotive Services 915 E. Ogden Ave. Maperville, Ill 60540 sorry about the misunderstanding you guys really helped and I am glad to send you stuff.

I've lived in Naperville since 1980, and in the local area since 1959. Who was the fourth owner, maybe I know him ?

I seem to remember several guys died in a flash fire in an elevator shaft while the John Hancock or Sears tower was under construction ! Hancock was completed in 1970, Sears in 1970...do you know what city the 1st and 2nd owners were from ? Car looks familiar for some reason.

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

[/ QUOTE ]

Remember Marlin that Motion didn't, in fact, have other 'phases'...just Phase III. It was either "Motion Modified" or the "Phase III". I've never seen specifics as to what denotes Phase III badging other than the 1/4 mile promise but JoeG may have some input on that.

This is the 1st time I've seen 'stage' packages advertised for Nickey cars. That's interesting news to me.

The one guy was from Chicago, the other Granville and the first I don't know because he is the one who died in the elevator shaft fire building the Sears tower and sold to the 2nd owner.
