Going to start a thread for the build of my 1967 Nova. I bought this car in 1992 built and drove it daily for years, raced and showed it, and then sold it in 1996. In 2021 I was able to locate and buy the car back from the guy who bought it from me in 1996. Even though he only put 500 miles on it, he took out the built 355cid, and put in a relatively stock 327 and painted it. Luckily it spent the 25 years in a garage and there is no rust. My plan is a full pro touring build but not going to do a show car like my previous Camaro. Here are some pictures of it back in 92 before and after I did a driveway build on it, then when I bought it back in 21, and how it sits now.

Most of the stainless steel bolts that I bought from Orchard Supply Hardware and that I hand polished back in 93 are still there.
