1972 nova build
Hey new here! been working on this thing for a while now and figured i would get on here and show it off a little. started working on it a little over a year ago replacing body panels and starting the body work. Ive never built a car always been into trucks and building off road rigs so it was time for a change. Never done a lick of body work or rust repair either so there was a learning cure and something i wish i would of done different along the way but happy with they way it has turned out so far. ill try and post picture in order but I'm sure they will get mixed up.
Overall goal for the car is to build a driver, and occasional track/autocross car eventually.
Power and drive train-
Ls7 rebuilt with steel rods and forged pistons
T56 out of a camaro
narrowed dutchman 9in with detroit locker and 4.11 gears
4 link and coil overs
front QA1 coilovers
wilwood brakes all around.
rest of it is in the funding process haha

lots and lots and lots of blocking and blocking and blocking. like i said its my first go with body work so i ended up missing some things and redoing work a few times over but it was worth it

I was a little nervous going with black but it was the only color i REALLY wanted so I said screw it and went with it. Couldn't be happier.
