If you’re joining us Friday, Saturday or Sunday, make sure you stop by the Builders Showcase and check out this 1969 Camaro built for Tom & Sherri!

We’re incredibly proud to have this car representing Nichols Paint & Fab in this year’s Builders Showcase. From the custom bodywork and one of a kind paint to the engine bay, interior, and all the little details in between, an incredible amount of work went into bringing this build together.
