My new car...
Monday, February 26, 2007 12:07 PM











and there's my new toy.... a 1965 Nova SS with a 194ci straight 6, quarters are savable, doors and trunk floor need to be patched, and the windshield channels are gonna need some massaging... otherwise, its a fairly solid car missing lots of pieces.



Built, bottled, ready for 11s. 14.446@93.74mph, 1.848 60' N/A.

The basic plans for now are:

- get the body into tip top shape and into Crocus Yellow or similar pale yellow paint
- TCI front and rear subframes (and minitubs, I want to run a 10.5W tire)
- Period correct interior w/12 point cage
- 427 twin turbo mouse (motown short block, brodix 18x heads, a huge solid roller and a pair of Holset hx40s)... lookin for 1000hp.

Nice pick up!!! I loved those years of Nova's.

I'd have picked up a 69 Camaro or 70 Nova if I had a more parking space.

I need to pick up one sooner than later..
