Hello, I have a '70 and I would like to start out by saying this site has been a huge help when it comes to tips and advice for my nova. I've been referring back to this site for a couple of years now while restoring my car. The only place I had access to the net was in high school, but now that college has come around I invested in a laptop. So now I am officially a member...
I started on my project when I was 13 and it is still an ongoing project, but here are some pics. Hope you guys enjoy....

Very sharp looking car. How about some specs on it? I'm surprised no one has asked for a burn out picture yet. So, lets see some smoke.

great looking Nova

And some fine work.

Love the color of the firewall and did you only do the top of the radiator core support?

I got to know what your tire and rim sizes are.

Hey don't dis my kitty, Chris! He's not fat...just big boned.:p At 25 pounds he's actually a little smaller than his brother who usually weighs in at about 26. When you're lying on the couch and those two crawl up on you it can get real crowded!:eek:

Jarash, I want you to know that I think it is totally unfair that someone your age has such a way cool ride :o ... just wanted you to know that. I'll bet all the ricers at your school are just eating their livers when they see you pull into the lot.:p
