Hey everybody,
My history:
Idaho
When I was 15 and cleaning paint booths and sweeping floors at a body shop I got a "More"Door 74' Nova Buttercup yellow with a 350/350 factory air and 48k on the clock. ($800)Needless to say there was not a drop of rust.... so I had the front seat re-covered painted it a dark purple with charcoal inserts on the hood and decklid. 58k on the clock and I just drove it today.
Dying to own a two door at 17 I found a 73' Nova 350/350 in a barn. Traded a 71' Suzuki TM 125 I re-painted plus 500 cash(A complete pile of rust). Put my new found body/bondo skills to work and painted it Tangerine orange with pearl white stripes. Drove it my senior year if high school and sold it to pay for college....
Kansas
Now that I am in the air force and a little money ahead I have been on my hunt for a good project street car. Found a 69 in KC 327 w/alum vette heads 200r4 overdrive 3.73 10 bolt rearend. New orange paint and decent body work(floors need re-done cause I am picky). Now I am searching for parts and making it even more of a show stopper.:yes:
