I believe Sam Venti may have owned that car.

I recently bought the car I think is being referred to here. 1975 Corvette convertible w/ crate 454/460 Miglia Red, believed to be a Nickey car. Will be trying to verify that soon. It did not originally come from Nickey but supposedly was taken there for engine install shortly after purchase. I do have the stack of paperwork mentioned, including the original window sticker. Car now has 10k miles on it. Had to have the a/c charged and it's nice and cold now. Car runs and looks great. I think I'm going to enjoy this one.

----Its my understanding that Nickey Chevrolet closed its doors (as Nickey) in 1973. If so it would have been hard for a 1975 Corvette to have had a Nickey engine transplant in 1975. The car does, however, sound like a lot of fun.....Bill S

Nickey Chevrolet became Keystone Chevrolet at the begining of 1974.

The Nickey Chicago speed shop and Super Car builder continued to build and market &quot;Nickey&quot; Cars until they closed for business in 1977.
