I agree with Cumby 100% And that's pretty scary.

Gotta love these cars that were racers from day ONE. Do it up just like Levi had it. Lots of nostalgia venues out there to run it in and it will be much more appreciated.

Saw it run many times on Sunday afternoons at the Englishtown Pro Stock Eliminator shows. That would be a great trubute to a car that raced many early Pro Stock cars that gave way to guys like Blevins, Iacono, Heavy, Rotunda etc. just to name a few. They were all part of the dawn of PS racing. Not many Pro Stock novas were out there either in NHRA. Just 3-4 that I knew of. To much history IMO to be bracket racing with that old girl!

100% agreement - put it back to the old look. I'd be surprised if that old photo vendor that sets up at York wouldn't have some back-n-the-day photos of this car..... CJoe probably bought 'em all!

The car was featured in an early 70's east coast magazine. I may still have the issue. The article and photos show the car in a commercial warehouse/industrial area and some dirty burnout strips on the street. Levi and the crew were pictured. I'm older and not real good on the computer,and I do not have a scanner to get the article on here. Maybe I can get some help.

I just ran across the magazine article on the black knight nova. It is featured in the February 72 Hot Cars and High Performance Stockers magazine on pages 22 and 23. The best times as of that issue was 10.11 et @ 137 mph.

Sorry, just realized that this information was posted later, my bad.
