Billy Utley's super-hot 1972 Chevy Nova recently went in for some performance and cosmetic updates at B&B Classics. In addition to the new Inferno Orange paint job, this LS3-powered pro-touring masterpiece also received additional engine bay bracing, a new set of JRI remote-reservoir shocks, hidden windshield wipers, and a full inspection, fresh powder coat, & new fasteners on his Forgeline ZX3R wheels with the bolt-on competition center caps.

Wow. If you'd asked me what I thought a Nova would look like in Orange I don't think Id have supported the idea. Id have been wrong. That looks fantastic!

This car is amazing! And the Forgelines are an appropriate compliment to the Nova!

Wheel/tire specs?

Wheel/tire specs?

The wheels are 18x8.5 front and 18x10.5 rear. I just dug through the build thread, but did not find the tire sizes. Maybe I overlooked it. Here is the thread: https://www.pro-touring.com/general/member-pro-touring-projects/new-72-nova-project-30638.html

A huge congrats to our friend Billy Utley from B&B Classics for his performance at this past weekend's Ultimate Street Car Association Pittsburgh event, where he won the Detroit Speed "Fastest American Iron Pre-1980" award and earned a trip to the 2014 Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational in Las Vegas with his '72 Chevy Nova on Forgeline ZX3R wheels. Nice job, Billy!
