I posted a few details over in the new members section, thought I might give more specifics here.
This is a first for me, never owned a Nova before! Always admired their classy lines, but till now it's just been a dream. I bought it on Sept. 8th from a small mom/pop car lot over in east Tennessee. Was going out there on vacation anyway, so I just took my truck and trailer instead of the wifeys van. :no: :yes:
The detals below are a combination of what I was told by the car dealer and what I have been able to see, put together and figure out.
I think I'm going to REALLY enjoy this car!!!
