Fall 08 Chevy Vettefest 69 Z/28 Feature Showcase

When ever I see that Nickey logo, I think of the time that I picked up friends at Northern and headed to the Windy. I had always heard of Nickey but being from the sticks I had no idea where it was. So I asked one of the girls if she could take us by that dealership on the way in to the State Theater. When I pulled onto the lot I thought I died and gone to heaven. At home we had such small selections of cars but there every color Z with all hoods and spoilers and some with JL8s. By then the second or third series of cars were out and mine was like a stripo special. WLS advertised heavy for them between music.

That is very cool info, Dan. It would be great to find one of those Nickey JL8 Z28s.

One listed for like $4500 as I recall not sure. Loaded RS Vinyl top, tilt, 8 track, hounds tooth and more. I remember being so shocked that a car could cost that much! Mine was a basic jane that listed for $3854.70. That RPO JL8 cost like $500.00 alone!
