You guys should read the MCR article from '98 or so where he raced all three of the copos - the Nova went 12.99 on the drag radials! through exhaust manifolds! through the tailpipes!! That's impressive

Thanks for the kind words guys. I still have not got my copy yet
One of these days I might actually restore the car. When I got it, it had blue velour seat inserts and a after market wheel etc etc, a lot of wrong things. The good news was that it had all original body panels and the original motor and bum. Back in 86 I put the wrong seat covers on it because I did'nt know any better, and really did'nt care as I knew I was just gunna race it. Found a 71 steering wheel that would do for the time etc etc. I now have a new dash that is'nt cut out for gauges, a new steering wheel, and an original May 70 dated exhaust manfolds/smog with original hoses from a May 70 Z28 that was removed the first week of purchase and put in a attic. Maybe by the 10th Supercar Reunion it will be ready. At least that's kinda my aim. Thanks again
