@HOTRODtwan81 Yeah thats what i miss about cali no smog if its older than 75. In AZ it has to be older than 66. But I have ways around it...lol. My unk picked up one in dino for like 7 or 8 hundred complete. I've seen a few on craigslist for less then 2 gees

[HOTRODtwan81]

Dam $500 man I would have got it too , I was. Saving for a monte carlo ss but there. Something about tha nova I am thinking about making my next goal & no somg ??

@HOTRODtwan81 Thanks, it's coming together! Can't wait to have em all on the road. Them Novas is becoming more popular. I still like the 66-67 Nova body style better but for $500 I couldnt pass this one up
