I just wanted to fill my fellow Autopia members in on my recent muscle car purchase. Thats right its not a Z !!!. I have been looking for awhile now for a 66/67 Chevy Nova II and I finally found one that met my standards and was in my price range. Here are some particulars on the car.
1967 Chevy II
New Chevy 350 motor bored .30 over
MSD ignition
Holly 670 carb
Edelbrock Intake manifold
Moser rear axles
TCI Street Sizzler Turbo 350 Trans with stall converter
Headers and 2.5 inch exhaust
New front and rear sway bars
New front suspension with 2 inch drop
New American Racing Torq Thrust II Wheels
Hurst Promatic 2 Shifter
New BFG tires
Overall the car is in great shape has some very minor surface rust around the rear window moulding. The undercarriage is immaculate. However it appears that at some point that it is going to need a paint job. Cosmetically the car is very good and mechanically is near new.
You can tell that you are an Autopian when the owner pulls the car out of his garage and you are already looking it over and thinking about your product and process that you want to do on the car (even before owning it !!!!!).
The roof is pretty beat and it going to need alot of work. I am already drooling about working on this car and detailing it.
My initail plans are:
Clay
Megs #80 (the car has some oxidation and I figure it should be tackled by #80 and the oils from #80 should help the paint immensely)
CK Vanilla Moose
Nattys Blue
I am pouring over the Nova catalogs wondering what I want to do first... :getdown
Any comments and suggestions let me know
