      Getting back into things...

      Hello again everyone. Long time member getting back into things and wanted to reintroduce myself. Some may remember me some may not.

      Owned the car since October of 2002. Started off as my daily for about the first 3 years. Fairly basic car with poly bushing and the Hotchkis kit otherwise stock but dead reliable. The car got regular street miles up till this past year. Between buying a house and other interest(karting, guitar and woodworking) it has been collecting dust in the shop.

      But the bug has bitten me again so this past week I ordered a disc brake kit from SSBC and shocks from ridetech. Along with that I have a few interior parts install.

      A few old pics...







      That's it for now. Thank guys.

      I like it! Glad you're back and I'll look forward to updates. I can relate to your situation with a project gathering dust. For the last year I've been working out of state. Now my project is at my brother's place in storage where it'll remain for the next year. Hopefully it'll help me actually do the work to build it in my head and on paper repeatedly.
      Cars are meant to be driven.

      Thanks John. I'll start a build thread in a few days. Waiting on a few more things to be delivered.

      I remember looking at your posts way back before I was a member here. I definitely remember you - you cost me a lot of money! I remember this picture specifically. It was the one that planted the bug in my head about what to do with my 72, as it was one of the first Nova's I had seen that was getting out there on track and really being driven.

      Welcome back!


      72 Nova. Just trying to make a modest little driver.

      In High school and college a buddy had a white 72 SS with black/gold stripes. It was a fun car. He had keystone wheels on it if I recall. I really like the wheels on yours. They make it stand out from the others.

      Nice car and welcome back. It sounds like I need to go read your build thread.
