      got a second little driver project

      found a sweet little 66 nova wagon thanks to insomnia and craigslist and quick draw mcgraw on emailing the nice people!!! some phone pics will have to do for now but i will take some more as i clean the 2 inches of barn dust off of her!!! some mods already done are the wheels and i believe c4 suspension and brakes in the front. 400 small block with turbo 350 trans, alum radiator, factory 10 bolt, shaved rear door handles, kinda messy mini tub and fuel cell. i believe all the trim and interior are all with the car and the guy gave me a extra set of side qrtr glasses that are slightly tinted. they were awesome people and hot rodders! i told them about the site and they were excited!!!! hopefully we will see thier very very nice novas on here soon. anyway enjoy!

      That sounds like an awesome start. Is it running/driving? Get us some more pics when you get her cleaned up.

      yeah i paid $3500 and drove it on the trailer. it runs but i think it needs a cam or a piece of the valve train because its pinging and poping through the carb. i dont think its anything to major. i just wanted a cool driver to putt around in. alittle tlc and she will be fun to drive!!!

      That is a bargain for a runner with some of those pieces you mentioned. Keep us posted.

      well guys first time out on the road and made it back home!!! i think its going to need a cam or lifter but overall not to bad. suspension is a little shakey but needs a going through.
