That has to be the nicest Gen IV I've seen to date!
Been looking for a DD for my husband for some time & I came across several Novas of CL but he wasn't really interested. After much searching and him realizing what he wanted was far from our 1500 price range he was willing to look at the only Nova who called me back. This 78 Custom. Aaaaaand he fell in love.
Shes had her entire AC system ripped out, speedo is jacked (reads 80+ when your doing 15 lol), has a hitch attached and the passenger fender extender is busted up. But she drives great. And we're dreamin' big for her.

Beautiful car! What color red is that? Is it a factory color?
Built a garage with my dad awhile back to restore his 67 Camaro. Time passed and the shop started to fill with tools and the empty second bay was taunting me. Found this Nova on craigslist and decided to take on my first project. I started restoring smaller parts at night after work and when my dads car came off the rotisserie the nova went on. I have been working on repairing rust damage. I will continue to upload more pictures to my G+ page and will update my gallery post here as I make progress.
