Nova Restoration 3

Postby Fly2e » Mon Aug 06, 2007 8:35 am

[size=12][i]Well I have not spent as much time as I have wanted to this summer. It is pretty hot out to be working on a car outside.
I do plan on getting allot done when I move it into the garage for the Winter as I do have heat in there and more time.
It took 3 months to get the clear title from Georgia.
Once I received the car after having it shipped from Georgia, I was able to register it with the state & get tags for it.
This way I can at least move it around "legally" while I work on it,
not too mention going to the store to get milk!

...and there I was expecting a Vauxhall Nova*... ;D

Looks very nice other than the bits of the rear end you've said you haven't done yet. :)

Wicked, dude!

Looks great, but it's just screaming for some red pinstriping! Only all-black Novas I like to see are in black primer... LOL.

Speaking of Novas, just saw the most be-a-u-tiful orange Nova SS at the local automobile shop. Complete with factory steel rims (orange, of course) and chromed baby moon caps.
