      Super Sleeper NOVA - BIG MUSCLE

      Hey Guys -

      Thought you might dig this - we shot Dru Diesner's 1972 Nova a couple of weeks ago and it was simply outstanding. It was originally built by Kurt Urban and then sold to Dru a couple of years ago. Thing is unreal. Enjoy

      If the thing still has stock manual drum brakes he should screw the cool "sleeper" look and put some real brakes on it before he kills himself or worse somebody else. I've been on the wrong side of a fast car with stock drum brakes, it is NOT fun, but that was 25 yrs ago when a big deal brake upgrade was going from four wheel drum to stock discs up front. Hate all you want but everything is fine until someone else on the road does something you don't expect.

      It's disc all-around and stops just fine.

      That thing is freakin awesome, but someone has to figure out how to put power steering in it. IMO the manual steering is just dangerous with that much power.

      For me, yes. I like to think about when that thing gets loose on a hard accel.
