Is it too late to enter a car? It's hardly a show car. I wouldn't mind taking the '69 there, but I would like to keep it so I won't drive it there and park outside...

Vince, your old Nova was on the chassis dyno and I chatted with the current owner alittle bit again. They were having a bit of trouble with the dyno software but the last number I heard was 310hp. I'm not sure if it was acurate or not with the problems they were having but the car sounded pretty healthy.

Congrats Steve, beautiful car!

Lots of great cars again this time.Great pictures guys, thank you.

Lark, Thats cool, I was hoping to get out there but I got held up at the shop. Would have been cool to see. He's setting up to do an LS1 and T56 swap this winter. Im hoping Scotzilla will have the time.
The car is a lot of fun.
Any luck with your Nova? Wait...you didn't get any pictures of it? LOL

I ended up taking the Skylark this time. As luck would have it I ended up selling it on the first day. Even though it sat for a year and a half and needed more work than the Nova it ran great. That and the price probably helped. The new owner just picked it up last night as a matter of fact.
It is still up in the air with what I want to do. I have a small block 400 sitting in my garage. Maybe it will end up in the Nova or I might still put the car up for sale still. There's always the November show.
