Re: Project: Hot rodding a 69 Nova
Nova looks good, but that '68 Chevelle makes me drool.

Re: Project: Hot rodding a 69 Nova
Made some more progress over the last couple weeks. Finished up the interior, put an oil and water temp gauge in, for the upcoming fire the new motor party!!
 I got the fenders out. They needed some work. I repainted all the areas where the bolts had scratched the paint. Then sanded and buffed out the paint on both fenders.   I installed the wheel wells, before the fenders.  Installing the fenders. I put an old sheet down to prevent scratching. Then when the fender is in place, I remove it.   I took a ride to upstate NY to pick up the exhaust today.   Here's a couple shots of the car as it is now.   Next, I will get the exhaust installed, then the hood, and front bumper, headlight bezels, which I'm painting. I also will be sanding and buffing the doors and quarters, like I did with the fenders. Then it's time to fire the motor. If that goes well, the Nova's a finished project.
