1973 Nova with L88 flown to L.A. for Hot Rod

The article was in the May 1973 Hot Rod magazine. The car went 12.03 @ 116.57 mph with slicks and a 9" Vitar converter. They complained that the suspension was being over powered and that the car should be able to run mid 11s or better with fine tuning. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/

I bought around 500 old magazines this weekend and remembered this thread when I saw this. I can post the article if there is interest ?
I also found the September 1973 issue with the Bill Jenkins pinup spread !

They had to have made at least 2...Kevin Suydam has a 1973 Nickey Nova with an L88 in his collection.

There were more than two made.
