That is a real nice Nova! I didn't even notice that was a blue mat. I looked at it quick and thought it was carpet.

The owner of that particular car has an incredible collection of cars in Florida. I have never personally met him, but it does indeed appear that he has the means and the knowledge to obtain some pretty rare and unusual cars.

Not to say he might not like to "create" something cool for cruising around in, but...never say never!

Who would've ever thought the lowly Nova would generate such conversation....makes this Nova boy proud

wilma

PS: the only thing that would make this 69 car more interesting is an L89 engine

Here is something to stir up the pot. Don't know if it's 100% true but I have heard two local counts that there is one Blue all aluminum 454 Corvette still out there. Even though American Muscle Car did a show on only two. I was told that GM found the car because it's still with the original owner. I was told this by two guys who have seen the car personally. One helped him load it on a flatbed the night after the third phone call from someone who had found out he still owns it!

Ditto.

The rubber mat subject is quite well known, they were all black and GM simply sprayed the top with whatever color they needed. A little lacquer thinner and a scrub brush will remove it nicely, then just spray some black lacquer on the top to keep it nice! The mat in my deuce was from a blue interior car - heck, we figured this out 10+ years ago when the price of black mats starting going up!
