THIS IS A COMPLETE HIGHLY MODIFIED 427/4-SPEED ENGINE/TRANS. “ONLY” REMOVED FROM THE EXPENSIVE EXACT DETAIL/LANE REPLICAS 1968 CAMARO RS/SS BUILT BY BILL THOMAS CHEVROLET THAT CREATED THE FAMOUS “NICKEY” CAMAROS/CHEVELLES/CORVETTES.

NOTICE THE STICKERS ON THE CHROME VALVE COVERS HAVE EXACT REPLICAS OF THE ORIGINAL “NICKEY” DECALS.

It’s a very high-performance big block 427 Chevy engine/4-speed trans with 3X2 Holley carbs (probably over 500+ ) and is highly detailed with tons of chrome high-performance parts and detailed wiring. It still has the original high-performance radiator with radiator hoses attached from the original 1968 Camaro. It would make a great high-performance engine/trans. for your street/strip Chevy or hot rod or other project or use as a display engine. Look the pictures over carefully to see exactly what you’ll be getting as pictures will show a much better description of of this Chevy big block 427 engine/4-speed trans from the famous”NICKEY” Camaro built by well-known engine builder Bill Thomas.

NOTE: NOT A MODEL KIT NEEDING TO BE BUILT. IT IS A COMPLETELY CUSTOM BUILT MODEL STREET/STRIP HIGH PERFORMANCE ENGINE/4-SPEED TRANS. AND READY TO USE AS IS THOUGH IT COULD ALWAYS BE MODIFIED FURTHER IF WANTED BY AUCTION WINNER WITH THEIR OWN SUPPLIED PARTS. THIS IS NOT A RESIN MODEL ENGINE WHICH FIRST YOU WOULD HAVE TO FIND ONE LIKE THIS ONE, YOU WOULD HAVE TO PAINT DETAIL EVERY PART, PUT IT ALL TOGETHER, AND THEN RESIN ENGINES TEND TO BE MORE EXPENSIVE. SO THIS IS A GOOD DEAL.

ENGINE STAND NOT INCLUDED.

LOOK CLOSELY AT ALL THE PICTURES AS I CAN’T GUARANTEE THAT THERE’S NOT A PIECE(S) UNACCOUNTED FOR OR MODIFIED. I COULD HAVE MISSED SOMETHING SMALL.

THIS 1:18 427 ENGINE/4-SPEED TRANS. REMOVED FROM THE EXACT DETAIL/LANE REPLICAS MODIFIED “NICKEY” 1968 CHEVY CAMARO RS/SS WAS DISPLAYED/STORED IN A PET FREE/SMOKE FREE/HEATED – AIR CONDITIONED ENVIRONMENT.

BEFORE YOU BID, BE SURE AND ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.

Thanks for looking and super thanks if you win the bid on this model engine or several upcoming model engines/trans. I’ll be putting on eBay including 1:24/1;25 392/426 hemi’s, Boss 429’s, 427’s and 427 SOHC Ford engines plus 396/427/454 Chevy big block engines, small block many of them customized, etc. The scales of these engines are mostly 1:24 diecast (but many 1:24 engines can fit 1:25 model cars/trucks (and vice versa) though some may require some customization), a few 1:25 plastic, many 1:18 diecast and 1:8 and 1:6 plastic scales. Most of all these engines are built while the unbuilt engines are in the model kits I also will be offering. Regardless, they all are pretty nice and really cool, and I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

I also will also have several of the RARE WCPD DIECAST MODELS on eBay soon. I am selling out of my entire collection for reasons given in the last paragraph of this description. You don’t want you to miss out on these model auctions as I have at last count probably 10 different colors of 1964 WCPD models (both hard tops and convertibles of each color). I also have several WCPD 1961 Chevy hard tops and convertibles with a few customized.

AND I’m continuously adding many model cars/trucks from my huge collection that range from scales of mostly 1:24 diecast, many 1:18 diecast, some 1:25, 1:8 and 1:/6 plastic models. I’ve been on eBay since 1999 and it took me a while to collect them all of them. You don’t want to miss out on these auctions as this is a one time chance, so keep watching as it will take a while to sell them all!

I DO NOT CANCEL BIDS. IF YOU WANT A BID CANCELLED, YOU MUST CANCEL IT YOURSELF WITH A GOOD REASON. RECENTLY EBAY MADE A NEW RULE CHANGE THAT IF YOU BID ON AN ITEM AND FINALLY WIN IT, THEN YOU CANNOT JUST TURN AROUND AND CANCEL IT SOME TIME AFTER WINNING IT. I’VE HAD TOO MANY OF THESE AND IT’S ABOUT TIME. ALSO, IF YOU BID (OR MAKE SEVERAL BIDS) ON THIS MODEL ENGINE/TRANS, HOLD THE WINNING BID FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND THEN AT THE LAST MINUTE CANCEL OUT BEFORE THE AUCTION ENDS, I WILL ADD YOU TO MY “NO/BID” LIST. I’VE HAD TOO MANY OF THOSE TOO.

SHIPPING: TO THE 50 STATES, THE SHIPPING COST IS 10.00 DUE TO USPS CHARGES FOR SMALL BOXES. OUT OF COUNTRY SHIPPING AND CUSTOMS PAPERWORK/EXTRA EXPENSES PROCESSED/HANDLED BY EBAY.

SPECIAL SHIPPING NOTE: I ONLY GO INTO TOWN ONCE A WEEK TO MAIL EBAY ITEMS I’VE SOLD BECAUSE OF THE DISTANCE I HAVE TO TRAVEL. SO IF YOU WIN MY AUCTION AND THE DAY YOU PAY FOR THAT AUCTION, IF YOU PAY BEFORE I HAPPEN TO GO INTO TOWN, THEN I WILL MAIL IT THAT WEEK. IF I’VE ALREADY GONE INTO TOWN THE WEEK BEFORE YOU PAID, THEN IT WOULD BE MAILED THE NEXT WEEK. I HAVE TO DO THAT BECAUSE GAS EXPENSES ARE NOT CHEAP. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING AND I TRULY APPRECIATE YOUR BUSINESS.

IMPORTANT NOTE: I AM NOT A DEALER, JUST A COLLECTOR WHO BUYS MOSTLY AND SELLS SOMETIMES. SO DON'T ALWAYS EXPECT PERFECTION. AND BEING HUMAN, I COULD HAVE MISSED SOMETHING UNINTENTIONALLY. THERE COULD BE SOME SMALL FACTORY FLAWS I MISSED OR PART(S) THAT COULD BE MISSING OR THEY COME OFF A MODEL DUE TO ROUGH MAIL HANDLING. I PACKAGE WELL, BUT STUFF HAPPENS. JUST GLUE THE PARTS BACK ON CAREFULLY IF PARTS COME APART IN THE SHIPPING BOX. I REPEAT, I AM A COLLECTOR, NOT A DEALER.

DO NOT BID ON A “PROJECT” MODEL IF YOU DON'T HAVE SOME MODELING SKILLS TO FIX/MODIFY IT (WITH INCLUDED AND/OR YOUR OWN CUSTOM PARTS) THE WAY YOU WANT IT.

I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR A RETURNED MODEL EVERY TIME SOMEONE CHANGES THEIR MIND AFTER THEY WON ONE OF MY MODELS AND/OR PARTS COME OFF FOR WHATEVER REASONS. SO AGAIN SOLD AS IS, NO RETURNS.

I TRY TO BE AS ACCURATE AS I CAN IN MY AUCTION DESCRIPTION AND ALWAYS SHOW UP TO 24 PICTURES IF NEEDED TO GIVE YOU ALL VIEWS OF THE MODEL/PARTS. SO ALL MODELS AND PARTS ARE SOLD AS DESCRIBED AND PICTURED. HOWEVER, IF A “SERIOUS” PROBLEM OCCURS, THEN CONTACT ME AND DEPENDING ON THE PROBLEM, I WILL ATTEMPT TO WORK THINGS OUT TO THE BUYER'S SATISFACTION WITHIN REASON.

I AM SELLING OFF MOST OF MY HUGE COLLECTION OF MY DIECAST/PLASTIC CARS/TRUCKS/PARTS (SCALES 1:72 1:48 1:37 1:25 1:24 1:18 1:12 1:8 1:4) INCLUDING MODIFIED AND NON-MODIFIED CARS/TRUCKS PLUS PROJECT CARS WITH OR WITHOUT ADDITIONAL PARTS AND PARTS/ENGINES-TRANS/WHEELS-TIRES ETC. THAT I NEVER HAD TIME TO COMPLETE, MODIFY OR USE. GETTING OLDER AND CAN'T FINISH THEM ALL, SO I AM RELUCTANTLY CUTTING WAY BACK. CHECK OUT MY ITEMS THAT ARE CURRENTLY ON EBAY RIGHT NOW. I HAVE SOME OF THE LOWEST PRICES FOR QUALITY ITEMS ON EBAY! AND KEEP AN EYE OUT AS I ADD MODELS OR MODEL PARTS ALMOST EVERY DAY NOW AND WILL BE FOR MANY MONTHS. I ALSO SELL SOME MODEL BROCHURES AS I GET THEM AND POPULAR CAR OR MODEL CAR MAGAZINES.

ALSO, ALL MONEY LESS NORMAL EXPENSES WILL BE DONATED TO CHARITY. THANKS VERY MUCH. BE BLESSED.
