Yep, he installed the caps in the wrong order.

Wow...and Dave and John are still working and painting yet today....35 years later.

Yes on the battery and the flag isn't correct on stripe and star quantity.

All types of tastes were around then as are now. That never changes and makes everything better. ...but even then, never liked the too high/tall look unless it was a truck or the front end of a true early gasser. We preferred the &quot;stuffed&quot; tire look. If it sat taller, just enough to clear the rear tires (no rub) with a rake was perfect.

40,000 original miles, lakewood traction bars, 70's era 14x8 mags and old hooker super comp headers.

Looking good man! This is such a great thread and the heavy Nova content doesn't hurt.

Is this your car Jefferson? I would love to hear the backstory.
