[josh@scotts]

Hey everyone my name is josh and i am heavily involved in drag racing, until now i havent seen this new style of pro touring ,man what a great idea , old school styling with new style technology simply amazing !! i have a 72 nova that ive built from a junk yard beater to a street asassin. although not a great handling car something about smoking the tires at 135 mph really exites me but recently ive seen this forum and cant believe my eyes ! these machines are simply beautiful.. im going to sell my car and hopefully i can finish my pro touring car ,65 mustang is the choice and im stickin with it ,its got a scotts coilover front end power rack ,four bar rear suspension and alden coil overs,an 03 svt cobra 4.6 ,tremec 6spd, iam basically looking for more of a stock appearance with a variety of upgrades. i currently work at scotts and do fabrication as well. tell me what you think and thanx for your time!!

Welcome to the site, Josh. Cool cars!

[josh@scotts]

thanks guys i appreciate the welcome and complements ,its been a long two months building the nova from basically a total basket case . tryin to make the deadline of aug 1st for the magazine but i did it ! just so you know this was build with 90 % used and junk yard parts from domestic and import parts ( sorry sometimes you gotta do what ya gotta do) but the overall look is not too badd....headers were made one pf the hardest part being originally built from a set of MESA 91 chevy truck headers (now one piece) but in the end it was well worth the fight!

How long have you work for Scotts? Your Nova looks great. Should be pretty quick.
