Nice Nova! The speed shop installed a real deal SS hood on it rather than just drilling holes for the hood louvers!.

I like the use of the intake manifold as a tool tray [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img]

novadude, I know that area on Banksville. That would look like a pretty good area to race (BITD, not now of course), then hit Eat-N-Park afterwards.

The Eat n Parks all over the Pgh , Homestead, Monroeville areas were Hotbeds,
Theee &quot;Place to be&quot; back in the day if you were looking for a race or to settle grudges.
(a lot of money changed hands ) Bragging rights were one thing but they raced for &quot;the Crown&quot; of King of the Streets.
Sunday nights seem dull today as I &quot;rode with my Dad as a Kid&quot; as he held or took the Crown many a times,....in any of dozens or so &quot;Fast cars&quot; he ran on the street and the tracks across the Tri-State area.....Very often the Heavy Hitters he beat regularly came back seeking, asking and paying good money for His Tune Ups.
The Missile Silos off of Rt 130 was a back drop to many 'serious' street races

.sometimes with bullets fired from the local police, high speed pursuits....crowds and too many cars to count were abundant
