**lowmile** · #1 06-26-2003, 03:13 PM

1970 Nova Hugger Orange 6cyl, 3sp, original; paint,int,trunk,tires,shocks, on and on, lots of paper work. Has to be one of the nicest unrestored Novas in the county. In a very rare color. I can't bring myself to clone it. 17,500.00 I know thats too much for a 6 cyl Nova but it's just a special old car. It almost killed me to type this add. Please, don't buy this car.

Is that the one Wayne Bushey used to own?

Yes, same car. Very cool Nova and neat color. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

I had a chance to see it when Wayne still owned it and shortly after they brought it up from Texas.

It gave me mixed emotions too...... such a great candidate with the original body and interior to put a nice and fun drivetrain in (can you say big block?).

But also, it is a very unique piece of Nova history with its 5,800 original miles and condition, and it would be a shame to mess with it too.

Such a debate, right Mark? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/

Well, since you have another great car all ready and waiting for a fine big block, I guess you won't have to do anything with it.

Nice example of how things were car---how come a bread and butter car like this only has 5800 miles?------if you can--- this car should go in the history part of your garage.------------JoeG

The original owner Charlie McDonald 72 was when he bought it. He drove it to town once a week for about 3 years until his health started to fail . He died in 1976 and his wife did not have a drivers permit so it sat in a block garage until his wife Texas Pearl past away in 1993. Joe I wish I had a history part of my garage but the problem is I don't have enough "history" in my bank account. Mark
