[NicKey]

Thanks for the compliments on the show. We all work very hard to get the very best cars of all Makes and models into the show.

Make certain to put it on your calendar for next year! The weekend before Thanksgiving.

Regarding the "Stinger" Hoods......they are part of both the Super Car as well as Nickey culture and heritage.

You will Notice in TBones pics that some of significant Camaros had a Stinger hood on them from back in the day. The Camaro Stinger hood was first designed and used by Nickey Chicago back in 1966 and it was clearly borrowed from the 427 Corvette, not only to provide additional clearance for the hi-rise and multiple carb set up, but to signify that there was indeed a very special engine under the hood of that particular Camaro, usually a 427ci engine.

Look at the hood on Fred Gibb's '67 Z28 Little Hoss and see how we matched that hood to the Fred Gibb serial number one car.

See the '68 Blue Motion Camaro or the white '67 Yenko Camaro.....both 427 Super cars with Stinger Hoods.

All of the Camaros in our display are customer cars and the customer chose to incorporate the Stinger Hoods into their custom built 5th gens. It is not a requirement...just personal preference.

PS; TBone you have earned media credentials for next years event...thanks again.
