Thanks everyone for the interest and support of my car listed on Ebay today.

To the best of our knowledge it is an excellent, undocumented, replica. I have added that to the add, it was unfortunately left our of the first run of the add.

We have done research to trace the title origon to the state of Illinois, which obvisouly was the state they originated from.
Unfortunately, Illinois is a non-disclosure state which does not help us at all.

I have called several of the past owners with no response.

The price of the car is not for a Real Nickey, but a Replica. As you know, a real Nickey sells for over $100,000.00.

After doing research in several History books, I found the RS/SS 350 were the conversion cars. I have included some history with the add.

The car is an excellent replica and drives like new that anyone would be proud to drive to a car show. I have won first place myself.

Of course, we will give all information along with the car.

Thank you for your interest.

HZ,
Just in case someone hasn't told you, your adv. is deceptive and misleading, even with your disclaimer. But,this is only my opinion.

I am sorry you feel that way. I have also posted the add on

I do not want to mislead anyone. It is a replica and it was an honest mistake that it was not in first description. Entering info on ebay can be challenging!

Thanks for looking!

Thanks members. I almost bid on that car. Its a good thing that someone got the add corrected. I just read that past discussion about the car and was surprised. You guys made it known that the fact it is a replica should be stated up front clearly. This new ad left that important fact out, and stated "all original parts", then gave a "VEHICLE HISTORY". If the car is not real then the parts can't be original and obviously not the correct history for the car. The information this board provides has helped me and I bet many others from getting taken.

You said it straight MattBek. The true nature of the car is clear. The whole Nickey backstory is joke. What history from Nickey? There is none. The car is a clone. Why is that so hard to understand....BKH

Brian, I think you hit the nail right on the head. Why put all of the info and facts about Nickey into the add when tha car is not an original Nickey? The car is a replica and should be represented as such.

From what can be seen in the pictures the car appears to be a very nice Camaro. It is a shame that the quality of the car is questioned due to it being portrayed as being original.

If the word 'clone' appeared in the title it would be so much more correct
(1967 Chevrolet : Camaro NICKEY 67 NICKEY CAMARO RS SS)

If I was selling this car I would blatantly say it was a clone. I would also say that it was a very nice car that a lot of money was invested into. The the car should sell on it's own merits.

What is this car worth? I would really love to hear what anyone would be willing to pay to have a car like this one in their garage.

The reason I have listed the history of "Nickey" is to educate people who do not know what a Nickey is, not of my car specifically.

I have listed the car as a replica because there is still some questionability if it could be a Nickey, we don't know for sure. The car could have some Nickey heritage, the car was originally purchased in Illinois.

Once again, we are not asking Nickey price, that would be over $100,000. We are not misleading anyone by the asking price.

Thank you for your interest.
