I have a 1966 Nova 2 door hard top that's been a slowww project. I found this car rotting in a Reno NV barn. The car was nothing more than a shell. No motor, No trans, No interior and no floors. I picked the car up for $800 and and I've had nothing but issues. This car went into a local shop to have the body work completed which ended up being cut up and welded until it was worse shape than it was when I dropped it off. The doors on the car wouldn't close, the right side of the trunk lid hung 2 inches father than the left side and the list goes on and on. I ended up in small claims court with the owner and won my case. The wreck of a car was taken to a different shop and while the work was done very slowly I'm happy with the progress so far.

Some finer parts of the car are

Built LS3
Tick performance Built T-56 trans
Built Ford 8.8 Rear end 3:73 gears
Mini tubbed
