Cool, looks like a good deal. Keep the sleeper look. Dog dishes FTW!

There are a couple around here. 1qwikbird in Hamilton has one.

Plan on keeping the sleeper look, keeping the baby moons and white wall tires, adding a 2in cowl hood, bucket seat interipr w/console, and cyberdine gauges in the console. Also plan on adding an LS2 and six speed from an 04 GTO (but thats going to have to wait a while until I get the money for it :-x)

looks like an awesome starting point, cant argue with the price either.

for inspiration, I would look at Kurt Urban's nova :drool:

LS1Hawk 05-19-2007 08:40 AM

I have a friend who had one of those a while back. Not a bad pick up for only $800.

Ya Ive seen em go on e-bay in the same condition for about 2,500 and up so I figured that I didnt do too bad.

Nice project! my brother (69novaguy) has one.

firebirdcrazy 05-19-2007 11:33 AM

wont be much of a sleeper if you add the cowl hood. Now the guy who has that twin turbo Nova is a true sleeper. No cowl hood, no paint, and a bench seat lol. Read the article about it not to long ago awesome Nova. You got a great car as a starting point, and you cant beat the price.

its not that big or a cowl only 2in (kinda looks like it could be stock), so it wolnt be too bad

Suprisingly it has no rot holes in the cowl section, and the braces in the inside of the fenders are not rotted, worked on it more today and almost got the front subframe out.

It pretty much is, front sub frame, rear end and other parts are the same as the 67-69 camaros.
