Daves list is one I live buy when it comes to day 2.

Here are some cool pictures Dave sent me of a Day 2 original owner Nova from my area in Lyons, IL. I hear that the car is still in this condition and still with the original owner but has not seen the light of day in decades.

I am STILL kicking around day 2ing my Deuce. I have ALL the parts shelved and waiting to install.
