**** Project low an go***** 63 nova
started out a stock nova intill i got ahold of it back in HS ever sense then things have been changing on it, stared out as just a cruiser for school an the shows, all started one car show where they had the autocross going on, thats changed everything. ever sense then i have been upgrading the car to start racing in the autocross at the show. Got a good start on it but there are still more thing i need to add to get it to where i want it..
FRONT SUSPENSION- CPP mini subframe kit (frame brace, tubular upper an lower control arms), Coil-overs, CPP 13inch big brakes, 1 1/8 solid sway bar, CPP 2inch drop spindles & steering arms
REAR SUSPENSION- Global west 1.5 inch lowering multi leafs, 1inch solid sway bar, frame connectors, lowered
RIMS- 17inch intros
TIRES- 235/40/17 BFG G-force KDW(rears) 215/35/17 (fronts)
MOTOR- just your standard SBC making around 350 for now
TRANNY- tubro 350 shift kit, 3500 stall
UPGRADES IN THE WORKS-
FRONT SUSPENSION- strut bar to tie the front end together
REAR SUSPENSION- 4link conversion
MOTOR- alum heads, bigger cam, change out gear drive, electric fans, change fuel system
TRANNY- 5 speed conversion

Love the color choice as well. It really pops in the sunlight. Good luck with the build.

I like the new wheels, the weld stars looked too small for my tastes, the new ones fill up the wheel well better.

Weld stars are too common. Keep it unique ;) Compliments on the paint combo.
