Re: BBBenny's nova
 

Damn, I just pm'ed Sam this morning to crank on Benny a little. Didn't think it would end up a thread. Anyone at vettefest this weekend is welcome to take a little 2.75 hour ride and see the car. Just give me a pm first so I'm around, although I think I may have a new grandbaby around that time.
Darren, she has a SS hood, although the stinger is something I'm going to do on something of mine one of these days.
Either cragers, or slots would be cool, and I do like those new Raidirs. The 15x8s would look cool, but we better think airshocks, and extensions. Redlines would be a nice touch with the cragers.
Anyway,she's come a very long way. Have benny show you the in process album someday. Only the will you understand how far.
Keep the ideas comin, and I'll try to get some pics to Rob to post.

Good gone Mayor. Keep the ideas coming! Didn't here from Camaro Joe yet or his brother. How about Don White? I am sure The Arones will have a few ideas for BBB! Lord knows Benny don't have any! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif Get us some pictures Schonye. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

THIS IS JUST WHAT THE DOCTOR ORDERED!

Re: BBBenny's nova
 

I think we should let Benny get this car home and have a chance to think about it. Don't rush the man, give him time to consider his options. I'm sure he will end up with a great car that looks good!

Here are some cool pictures Dave sent me of a Day 2 original owner Nova from my area in Lyons, IL. I hear that the car is still in this condition and still with the original owner but has not seen the light of day in decades. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif
