Update.The car is sold.Yes,it will be in my garage.Waiting on the money.Should be home by Tuesday or Wednesday of next week.More pictures to follow then.The wife wanted to know what my intensions were with it.I told her,the car would be left together except to do maint.Our second daughter will be out of high school in 5yrs so that is a good time to tear into it.Drive it for now and tear it down later.She also wanted to know if we were going to haul it to SCR9?I said as much as I would want to,no.Sorry guys pictures only unless you come up for the Berger show and cruise weekend.Cant wait to get it home.

$10k is a steal for that car, looks very original, that engine alone is 3500-4k, good job, good luck with it, join National Nostlagic Nova, wealth of information and resources. SULLY

Couldn't get the car for 10k,had to go the full $$$.Thats ok I just couldn't let this one go by.As for selling the 396 Mr.Deuce has first crack at it if and when it gets upfitted with bigger power.He was the first to ask about the motor,or the whole car purchase if I couldn't swing the deal.So being a man of my word he gets the first call.Next, thanks to all who chimed in for me to go buy the car.Thats what makes this board the best.

It is going to be a long week waiting for the check to come.Mr.Cumby I will trade ya even up for that black Chevelle

Just kidding.The family and myself will totally enjoy the new purchase.The best part about it being a 4spd is that my oldest daughter doesn't know how to drive one,but the wife does

Kendall,

My wife just "discovered" that she's able to drive the Chevelle with the 4 speed. Talk about a crazy driver...I was sweating bullets

Holly on the other hand, will have to wait awhile!

Nice score on the Nova...congrats!
