New to the site.

Hello all,

My name is Matt and I am from the Northern VA area. I am the proud owner of a 1968 Nova that I just purchased a month ago on ebay.

About the car:

1968 Nova, originally a 6 cylinder
1974 350 sbc
TH400
10 bolt open rear
Non AC
Power steering
Drum brakes all around
14" wheels

I am the third owner of the vehicle and it has about 120K miles on the body. It is a great driver project and the body is pretty solid for being an original PA car. I had the chance to take it to a local cruise in and most everyone there had great things to say about it, just can't wait for spring so I can get it out more.

I will post a link to one of the photo sites when I get a chance to upload pictures.
