I cant seem to post in the classifieds but I thought I would let you fine Nova people know first that due to unforseen circumstances I must sell the Nova. There is well over 35k in her, I'll start at $23,500 and that is negotiable. Pics and some descriptions are below.

Thanks 73 and lil red. I hope to clean up the engine bay even more. That is how I got it so i give the previous owner credit, he really gave me a good start. Lil red I live in a town called Ponchatoula. It is north of Lake Ponchatrain, not sure if you have heard of it or not. Appreciate the kind words.

Thanks 1bad66 and procharged67. The paint from what the previous owner said is torch red. My soon to be brother in law works at a paint shop and I need him to run the color. I guess it could also look a little different because it was painted about 10 years ago and has never been sanded and buffed. It is a acrylic urethane job and has no clear coat yet, so I am not really sure about the color yet.

Due to unforseen issues I must sell her. It kills me but I must. I cant seem to post in the classifieds so I figured I would bump the and give actual Nova people a shot, I want her to go to a good home. Thanks to all for the help in the past.
