My son got his first car today, 69 Nova

Awesome Lewis... I think it will turn out great for him and I love the fact he wants to keep the original color. I have some extra parts I can throw your way to help the little guy out.

Enjoy the quality time you spend with you son rebuilding it. One of my first cars was a Nova as well.

The smile plastered on his face in the 1st picture has been there since we got home. He poked his head out the door a few times to make sure it's still there. I can truly say I haven't ever seen him so excited. He even likes the old 5 slots which I think should stay with the car. This car reminds me so much of my 1st car, my 71 Nova. I did have a better start since mine was a 29,000 mile 1 owner car but this one will be a fun project for us.

Keep the slots... If he needs bigger ones give me a call Lewis...

not to hijack his thread but thought Id throw a brief photo history of my car.

October 1991, I was 15. Just brought home from original owner, 29,000 miles



June 1993, summer before my senior year in high school

Cool, you can't go wrong with a Nova. I like the color, but a stinger hood with a little off color contrast would be pretty cool.
