Default Re: Just wanted to say..

Rob, I am happy with just about any Nova, to tell you the truth. Don't tell Marlin or Tom that or Sammy and Benny! I think Sammy might be too busy eating cheesesteaks from Gino's though. LOL There are so many trim options on these cars and so many color choices, that it's endless. Most of the Camaro's are a been there done that seen it type of thing. Not that I don't love them too, but the Nova is the bastard child and the most overlooked Muscle Car. There are a few Color Combos that I have yet to see. When my 70 is done, it is more or less going to be a tribute to my first one. A 71 Nova that is Code 26 26 with the dark blue cloth and vinyl interior. I haven't seen too many of them around. I also found a code 28 25 735 Nova in a yard not too far from me. I am caught up more on the Colors then anything else! I guess that is the body man in me talking though. I could stick a small block or BB in anyone of them and woop up on the street or strip! The Nova has the best power to weight ratio then the Camaro. If you read some of the old articles about Motion or Yenko, they will tell you that the Nova was about the most deadliest car you could have ever stuck a 454 or 427 in! And that was without all the new cams and exhaust. So just ask some of these guys to hammer it with a BB and watch them s&^t their pants! I bet the real honest guys with tell you they threw out a pair or two of underwear. LOL I will stick to a Hi-Po small block. I can't afford too many pairs of underwear.
