Cool Nova, I bet it shocked a few cars at stoplights in the 70's.

A car just like this one beat me like a rented mule one time in Bensalem, PA - probably around 1987'ish. It was an Autumn Gold Nova, 396, but had big-n-little Cragars and some traction bars. I don't remember seeing a Reedman emblem on the back, but that wasn't really what I was looking at! Plus, Reedman cars were/are all over the place in Bucks County, PA.

Nice car, GLWS

Nice car, GLWS </div></div>This is probably the car Marlin. It never had a Reedman emblem on it as far as I remember.. I bought the car out of that area when the original owner died. It had a Real LS6 in it and that explains how well it ran. That motor was sold out of the car right before I got it..

Thanks Tom, was a tough decision to sell and I appreciate all the guidance you provided along the way. I really like that car, it goes like hell and is easy to drive to boot! Stefano will no doubt find her a well deserved good home. I still have the Reedman emblem, but it's in pretty bad shape. Paul's Chrome can repair it, I'll have it done and give it to the new owner.

Small world, and that was a really fast car - I was running an 'all show - no go' Nova at the time with big tires, traction bars, etc with the stock 250cid 6 banger with a mono jet! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Hmmm... sounds just like my old '70 circa-1989 when I was a freshman in college.
