Hello, just got myself in the old school world. :1st:

Here is a picture from a phone in the garage.

Always wanted to have a V8, and what is better than getting an old car like the Nova.

I am planning with my future wife to bring back the interior to its original state, with a few extras. Then from there start attacking every corner under the body. Get a "pro-touring" look with a classy interior.

I already have a list going in terms of mods.
CPP BBK front and rear
18" Wheels 8" front and 9.5" rear
Full Suspension mod (with taller spindles as I read here)
Then a 383 stroker engine too

All in due time. But for now the car is in running order, and it got registered last night :D
