1968 Nickey 427 Camaro Tribute, 4-Speed, 12 Bolt
Welcome to StreetDreamsTexas as we celebrate our 21st year in the classic and muscle car business. Chevrolet's Camaro was immediately embraced by performance enthusiasts, thanks to an extensive list of options, when it was introduced in the autumn of 1966. Soon, a few now legendary Chevy dealerships realized that there was a market for Camaros with high performance engines not offered by the factory, most notably Yenko and Baldwin. But Nickey Chevrolet of Chicago was the first, offering the original 427 Camaro by November of 1966. Among the support staff at Nickey was Bill Thomas, the racer and constructor of the phenomenal Cheetah, so these were not cobbled together hot rods, just seriously quick performance cars. This stunning LeMans Blue 1968 Camaro is a worthy tribute to those iconic Nickey cars. Lift the hood and you'll be greeted by 427 cubic inches of period correct (D 26 6= Apr. 26, 1966) big block featuring a Holley carburetor, high rise aluminum intake manifold, and a beautiful set of Doug's headers. The thunderous herd of horsepower flows through a crisp shifting Muncie M21 4-speed manual transmission, then back to a 12-bolt rear end with Positraction and 3.73 gears. Additional goodies include power steering, power front disc brakes, console with gauges, beautiful paint, fresh vinyl top, a perfectly tuned low restriction exhaust system, coilover front shocks, and Carrera rear shocks. The foundation for this gorgeous build must have been in good shape as all glass except the windshield is 1968 LOF and there are date codes remaining on seat belts. This is a fast, tight, melodious attention getter that is outstanding at converting rubber into smoke. 'Get out of jail free' card not included!
