Thanks Bruce for putting this up and thanks for the compliments! I got an old Title the other day showing the car at one time was registered to a man in Pilot Mountain, NC. I looked back over some resources and found I was wrong about the tires. The car should have had a 7.35 X 14 with a white stripe. The E-70-14 redline was only for the SS model so when someone painted the wheels they added the redlines. I am going back with the gold wheels and am leaning towards redlines again . I think some good detailing and a little touch up will go a long way on this car. Out of curiosity I checked the VIN pad on the engine and it matched the VIN and was coded as BF (230 with powerglide)

Tommy, if the current red lines aren't weather cracked and appear to be safe I'll bet they'll clean up nice. Try a little Westley's BleachWhite on them or a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. I've had good luck bringing the red stripe back to life with both products.
I agree that she'll look nice with the gold wheels and red stripes.
Throw us some pics when you get it done.

I love that 68 nova. Oh what I would do for that original Ivy gold interior. Notice all the different shades of green/gold.They don't get anymore original than that.
