Re: NICKEY nova
By the way.....my original L-79 car ran a best of 11.88(E&R built engine)back in 67'......In 87 I decided to try and recreate my old car......spent a year looking ( pre Internet days) at every P O S Nova in the midwest and came to the conclusion that Rust Buckets were all that were
left.....On vacation in Fla I saw an ad in the Local newspaper for a 66 Sport Coupe.....  And the rest is history.......Had a driveway paint job on it....stripped it down to bare metal ...not even a hint of rust.....Anyhow it is now Marina Blue,SS Interior, Polished Americans, Discs all around,ZZZ crate engine...Forged Pistons, Aluminum Fast Burn Heads, Hooker, Flowmasters, 700R4, 3.90 Posi and on 150 hp shot ran a best of 11.22 @ 120  How cool is that.......  The little lady hopes that one of these days I'll grow up....Nah!!!!!!Ken (full of stories)
