Nickey Chicago to offer Phase III 700HP version of 2010 Camaro SS!!!

As featured on homepage.

Exciting News Camaro Fans: Nickey Chicago in St. Charles, IL will be offering a 5th gen Camaro in Stage I, II or III options. If you know anyone who went to Chevy Vettefest or will be going, pick up the Official Program. You can read about each Phase. The article is on the back of the cover page aka page 1 of the program. Most of you guys are familiar with the old school Baldwin/Motion 1st gen and early 2nd gen Camaro's it will be something similar to that effect with a modern twist. The Stage III Nickey version will have a custom racing roll cage and a car that puts out 700 Horsepower.

For the younger guys on the site: Nickey, Fred Gibb, Dick Harrell were all legends in Illinois and the Midwest. Baldwin Motion & Don Yenko were legends out East. These guys built some of the fastest Camaro's made from 1967 - 1973. Nickey Chicago is trying to bring the magic back with their Stage I, II and III offerings.

Probably ZR1 prices...AND ZR1 performance

The stingray hood looks good along with that 427 badge.

But that beautiful hood (or any aftermarket hood for the 2010 Camaro that features a nice hoodscoop) will not look right with the SS fascia with the (non-functional) mail slot. And it will be pretty expensive having to replace both the hood and the front fascia in order to achieve the look of the yellow Camaro in the Nickey site.

Uh, I hate to be picky, but....... The Name of the Company is Nickey Chicago, not Nickey Chevrolet.

They are not the Old Nickey Chevrolet Dealership. However, they do make some really bad *ssss Cars!

Stephano bought what was left of the company and is focusing on performance. They no longer sell new cars but legally, it's the same company.
