Chuck, car is lookin badass as always man. The shotgun's look great, they really suit the style of the car. I'm really taking a hard look at Budnik's stuff for my build as well. Whats left to dial-in in the rear? You wanting to go lower out back?

[larknut]

Looking great! Seeing your car makes me want to keep mine even more.

[strtlegal]

lets just say, its real sloppy. i had to do more massaging in the upper wheelhouse so i dont get any rub when getting on it hard. it rubbed a little more when i had a passenger with me making a left turn. so that tells me i have significant body roll in the rear. so once i figure out what im going to do, the leafs will have to work for now with some better shocks of course.

Looks killker!

Can you let us know what u did to the stance in the front? also looking for a measurement from the ground to the top of the wheel opening...if you don't mind.

My 73 has the 2" drop hotchkis and that is not enough.

Love it.

[novaracer_2000]

Very nice.

[strtlegal]

im currently running coilovers in the front with ATS spindles and SCandC upper arms.

i had hotchkis springs about 3 years ago didnt cut it for me either but once i added 2" dropped spindles it looked perfect..however they limited rim selection and didnt help with my steering.

but looked killer

i think im right at 23.5"

[MrQuick]

looking good. Stance is killer.

[protour_chevelle]

Looks good aside from your front tires being on backwards ;)

[vancouver67]

I love your car too Andrew! You're car for me is great from a performance standpoint whereas Chucks has you on the looks department!

Hmmm.....kind of like trying to decide between girlfriends again! LOL!

LOL! Just messing with you John. Chucks car does looks awsome but there is no reason to compare our cars. Mine is probly just a beater with a decent body when compare to his car.

[brn agn]

Nice ride! Thanks for sharing.

[MarkM66]

Looks great.

[jackfrost]

i love the paint scheme. IMHO, that paint would look great on ANY car.

[strtlegal]

with as much money as ive dumped into the suspension i would hope i could atleast hang with him on the track, however hes got me on skill..no much autocrossing out in here s. az

[Chevrolaine]

Love it, but it's crying for a set of SS hood vents!:hail:

[70TWO NOVA]

Looks awsome. Your in AZ right? Love to see it in person someday.

[JWilson]

Looks great.

[MrQuick]

Love it, but it's crying for a set of SS hood vents!:hail: you know it would look killer with a set from a 68 SS Camaro. Dare to be different.

[strtlegal]

i actually bought a set of those from an ebayer and turned out half the tabs were missing..lol

i might have to put this back on the to do list.

[69bigblock]

Nice looking nova.

[strtlegal]
