04/73 Cincinnati ad for another '69 Yenko 427 Nova.
Different #'s but same location so likely the car as 07/72 ad Post 61?

07/69 ad w/ '69 Nickey Nova in Lafayette.
The 08/69 Lafayette ad posted earlier w/ 427 Nickey Nova appears to be a different car and seller?

Great update Stefano, very cool you knew Gene also had your shop location there.
Here's an 04/79 CA ad for a '69 Nickey 427 Nova, sounds like an L72 w/ 4-Spd. and 4:88's.
Ad notes a White car w/ Blk. also CA Plate WWX-416, anyone ever know of any real White '69 Nickey Novas existing then/now also if any possibility of gaining full VINs from CA Dept. of Vehicles by providing old Plate #'s + VINs missing last 6?
Strange how known car guy ads are mixed in w/ these Nickey cars but note bottom ad for a '69 'Runner w/ two engines, is this Art Carr the tranny guy?

The Orange Country Register was the paper I used to work for in high school.



I don't remember any Nickey prepared 427 Novas in the area. I would have most likely seen it out and about-as I had my big block Nova back then as well-in the same time frame. Kinda cool to know there was one in the area!


With the license plate being WWX-416-it had to be registered around 1969 in SoCal (maybe the owner worked MCAS El Toro?)....as my brother's 1967 RS/SS was plate UEY673 and registered 3/1967 in Fullerton, Ca. This was the original registration for the Camaro.
