Default 67 nova project

Guys I am trying to decide what to do with my new toy. Thought I would throw it out here and get some ideas.

How the car was new.
Butternut Yellow
Bucket Seats
Black Interior
Black Vinal Top
6 cyl Auto

Some time after painted Blue
Don't know if it was raced in blue or not.

Now it is Hugger Orange, Looks like it ran a Big Block, Auto

So what to do?

Leave basicly unchanged.

Repaint leaving everything basic as is.

Make streetable.

????????????????

Keep the racing heritage for sure...there's enough restored cars out there now. Plus it will be different at all the cruises that you'll take it to...

Oscar's place, Now that's cool. Kinda reminds me of Bob's country bunker. Any old bar bills in there with Howie's name on em?
Try to be careful with that rust around the rear side window area. They get pretty thin there, and unless there's one out new, no one was repoping a panel for that area.
Somehow I just don't see you making it a tame restoed driver.
Since you're in our area, I'd invite you to join the Eastern Ia. chapter of NNN. Our area goes way down there. Ray Morrison is one of us, as is Mrs Gibb,(honorary).Nova people help other nova people. :bigthumbup

Sounds good, I may be yelling at you for some help with some parts when I get going on this.

You know where we're at. Just hollar. I still think those cars with a 69 Z 302 and adequate tire are the best pound for pound street brawler ever.They don't weigh squat. Just not any clearence for big meats without gettin a little crazy. If I can find it, I'll send a picture of the lil stinker chevy ll that won the world series at Cordova a couple of times to Bruce to post.
