SILVER BULLET RETURNS TO REUNION
 

I told Rob about three years ago that I hoped to bring the silver 1970 COPO Nova to the 10th reunion. This past December, my two sons dragged it out of storage, as it has not moved much in 7 years. We thought we should sexy it up and bit, so took the motor out and subframe out and the sexy started. Anywayz, I had some unexpected health issues come up which really slowed the process down, but...... the exhaust should be back on by 5 oclock today and we have the track rented for Friday here. My 16 year old son will do all the driving and he has'nt even driven it down my laneway yet, so he needs some practice.
Anywayz... it officially looks like we will be at the reunion with my 1970 COPO Nova, one of two sold in Canada, with my sons hammering on the car. Can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great news Pete! I remember this car from it's magazine feature MANY years ago and it would be nice to see it in person. Hope your health issues were not serious.

#$%^#$%@#$%^@#^, but I'm happy to see the Simpson family https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: SILVER BULLET RETURNS TO REUNION
 

Pete,

I have to say it was an honor to help you and the boys this weekend. I hope I didn't slow the process too much! I am guessing that the car, if Owen can get the hang of rowing, will pull some 13.40's and maybe some .30's. Nothing like having Uncle JJ for rowing instructions! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

For everyone else, hang on to your hat. With a Simpson tune up on the LT-1, life will be he!! for the other small blocks! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: SILVER BULLET RETURNS TO REUNION
 

Thanks Rusty. Your help was great. In the heat in July, I really doubt we will see anything better than a 13.90. Likley 14.'s! Started it up yesterday for the first time since Dec. Sounds pretty good. Track rented tomorrow. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: SILVER BULLET RETURNS TO REUNION
 

Don't ya see, Pete is just trying to hedge any fist-fights between his boys! That Nova can't be out runnin' the Monte, or else big bro is gonna lay down the law! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: SILVER BULLET RETURNS TO REUNION
 

Well..... How did the track rental go and how many times did Owen stall out? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif I am sure JJ had to take a go at the ol' girl to see if he could still handle a small block! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: SILVER BULLET RETURNS TO REUNION
 

One really should not rent a track on Friday the 13th! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Okay, I am officially ill. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Well, I guess that this is the best way to teach them how to thrash! Get Tim Clary up there and you would be already beating up the tires again! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif
