The FAB53 '72 Nova

[LS1NOVA]

Cool mods guys, way to think outside the box. I wish I had wider tires on the front of my Nova.

are you wanting to keep this mod to yourselves ( and i wouldnt blame you if you did, honest ) or could you give some more specifics on how this was done and what it took to over come the challenges of doing this.

Did you cut up rust free quarters and fenders?

What are you plans for the cut wheel wells?

No one else can do this.... Just kidding, pretty much everything we did is in the pictures. If you need some specifics maybe Brett will chime in.

If I say yes will you be mad? The rears were gone; the fronts were fine, although the driver side does have a nice amount of bondo on it.

Oh, and a new picture from RTTC2:

I ran a 40.3 with Mary yelling at me during the "fun" runs. I don't know what my times were during the actual competition, but they actaully felt faster... The run with Mary I botched the far right corner and lost a bunch of speed.

I can tell you 39.5 was good enough to be in the top ten announced Sunday night for the non vendor class. You weren't that far from it. Impressive!

Dude, the Nova looked nasty (in the best way possible) this past weekend. I'm also not surprised you put up some very respectable times either. Good job out there!

That is a custom accelerometer using advanced photographic datalogging. If it weren't for sloshing, I'd say he was pulling a g there lol.

I like to call it my "corner-weighted g-meter". Inner fenders and non-sealed housings don't mix.

I'm working on under hood air extraction ideas right now, so I won't have this problem much longer.

Hope you don't mind if I post my amatuer post-processed version of your photo.



Love how low you got that thing!

Just tell your passenger to keep arms and legs inside the ride at all times!


Seriously, I pulled over to a rolled car to see things I never want to see again. Keep it in the car.

Coming from the offroad community, I know what you mean! I didn't even know he had his hand out.
