Re: Nova wasting away
I looked at the engine back in 1994. He installed a 427 short block. The orig shortblock is in his basement and all correct.

Re: Nova wasting away
See if he'll let you jack it up and maybe put the tarp on the ground under the car too? . Hope the interest in the preservation of his car helps make it yours someday? ~ Pete

You read my mind. I went to home depot and purchased a tarp which I hope to install tomorrow. [/ QUOTE ] Good idea.Bring him a nice hot bowl of homemade soup and bread and butter him up with that...maybe he's just hungry?

Tell him the price will include mowing down the weeds also.. That is a shame, could be a cool car. Maybe money does not motivate him, trade him a car/truck.  [/ QUOTE ] Weeds? To the owner that's landscaping!  Yeah, it's a shame to see a car like that sit and fall apart. But it's probably a situation where he ordered it like that and just can't part with it. Wish he would have covered it better like you said Steve.

Re: Nova wasting away
That is a major concern of mine. Remarkably the outside sheetmetal looks OK. The floors, rockers and trunk are sure to be a problem.
