Project: Hot rodding a 69 Nova

[Bill Rose]

Yea Dan, I'd like to see the 71 Chevelle back in my possession. That's a nice Chevelle, and someone offered me a boat load of cash for it........and I caved!!!

Been pretty on the busy on the Nova..... I got the seat belts out and dismantled them, cleaned um up, and reassembled/screwed them down.



I also got the front bumper, parking lights, brackets, ready to go back on the car.



I spent a lot of time getting the carpet down. The crappy repro carpets are a ball buster, but with a couple cans of spray glue, a heat gun and a lot of 4 letter words, it came out ok. Also got the back seat in.



Then there's the dash, steering column, radio, glove comp, and all the wireing to make it all work.....hopefully!!



I also got the rear bumper, brackets lights, license plate/fuel door etc done.





The last 2 projects are to get the nose back on the car, after repainting the insides black. Then the exhaust system, which is ordered and should be here in 3 weeks. Then the most nerve racking part, firing up the new motor.
