It's coming buddy.

I've been trying so hard not to bolt them on until I'm done. :JeffSucksToo:

Morning NorCam!!
Hole drilled in Lakewood near the top of the hoop not correct as "original".
Not being a smart-A$$ ..

Likely put there from someone who had a harness bolted in? It can stay there...matters not to me. :beers:

Probably for a head pad. It would be easy to weld closed and smoothed.

Drag 500s and Cragar SSs look killer!!!!!! :worship:

Not a whole lot of time working on the car the last week or so, but got the motor pulled yesterday, removed the aluminum fuel lines and drained the old fuel. I started removing of the old brake lines last night I'll finish that up today before dropping the tank. Gotta go through the back brakes, pull the Lakewood bars off and treat them to correct paint and some new decals. Also need to decide on some shocks for the back of this car before bolting it back up. While I'm at it, I'm going to do some tunnel work as a previous owner patched it up from the old Super Shifter and the tin work is weak at best. I'm going to reinstall the Super Shifter in this car and run it with an M22 Supercase I have here. Also found a few holes I want to weld up under the car as it must of had a bolt in roll bar at some point in it's street life.

Any of you Ohio guys remember seeing a 3 or 4 point cage in it?

Plan is coming together and it will be ready for early spring with some clean up of the rough edges I've found.

Rear brakes are cleaned up and serviced with new e-brake cables installed. Hope to get the brake lines finished this week and then I'm onto the front disks and booster. Also planning to hide a vacuum pump in behind the battery so I have enough stopping power. Car still has original outer drums.

Nice to be working on a car again. :-)

Looking real good NorCam.

Graeme, there was never a roll cage in the car the times I saw it.

Here's an update after spending a couple solid days working on the Nova. First off, the PO of the car decided to spray the entire underside in flat black prior to listing it for sale. They coated everything under the car in flat black, and I mean everything. I had most of it apart so I decided to cover the car and pulled the diff to repaint it while the trac bars were off. Once painted I added all new hard lines for the brakes. Also cleaned up the frame rails and ran new fuel and brake lines from the rear to the front of the car which cleaned it up nicely. I'll tweak and straighten up the hard lines once I get ahead of the main work.
