Mark Mutert Let's see your Nova
I got to meet and hang out with Mark Mutert and his brother at Goodguys Columbus. The parking lot at the host hotel serves as an impromptu car show after a long day at the fairgrounds. They built the entire car themselves including paint and upholstery. The car attracted lots of attention so I'm nagging him to post some pix.
Time to show off the big secret: Slick, black body, clean interior, budniks and engine compartment please.________________

Thanks Steve. I'll try to get some pics really soon.
I really wasn't trying to keep it a secret, just to busy or didn't want to take the time to post build pics,

It's my idea of "retro-touring" sorta original looking, but obviously pro-touring. Originally Posted by Steve68

Re:
Hey Mark I saw your Nova in Des Moines, It is an awsome car, very well done. Are you from Iowa? I'm just north of D.M. about 25 miles. Let me know, I'd like to get together with you, Steve and Jabin sometime. Again, killer car. I've got a soft spot for Nova's, had a 72' many years ago. Take care, Trond

Super clean car !
My last car/project was a pro-street 72 Nova.
One question......
Are your valve covers powdercoated or painted ?
I was thinking about going the black engine bay / bright silver motor route , and was thinking about powdercoating , or maybe even cermaic coating.
once again , very sweet ride........ProTeal55
