It running under its own power and about ready for paint. Here is a few pictures of the exhaust and my father and son in my car.

That Nova is looking sweet. How tight a fit is that LS1? My dad has a 63 SS Convertible in his shed getting covered up by the birds right now, maybe if I send him some pics he'll put a tarp over it..

A little more information for you guys. The car now has a front tilt hood and is being block sanded for paint. It is going to be ferrrari titanium grey over porsche polar silver. I am going to order budnik gasser D's in 17's and 18's. As for interior i have a friend helping me make a wood dash and console. Interior touches will be ultra lite gauges, a 7" monitor, pioneer stereo, dvd, and xm radio. Door panels will be black leather to go with the black leather Recaro Trend seats. Oh ya and lots of dynamat on everything.

How do you like your Scotts Front Clip? we have one on a 55' Nomad and we will never buy another!

the front end is a nice piece the only problem that i had was with alighnment. It is a real pain in the ass to get the front end setup. It would be a lot nicer if the upper control arms were like Pole Position A-ams. Other than that it looks a lot stronger that the alston or heidts front end.

Looks great. I really like the Nova Converts. We have a really nice all original one to build, someday.

Ours had malor issues......the whole thing had to be re-worked pretty much! And cust. service sucked

[deak350]

there customer service is bad I even went and talked to them at the San Diego Goodguys and they didn't have much to say. There starting points for alignment don't really mean much and it took me about 8 hours to get the thing to align properly.

Updates? Pics?

[MrQuick]

[yody]
