A little over a year ago I bought a rustbucket of a Nova from AdamandEvil (dunno if anyone on here knows him)....anyways its just about done and I thought Id post a few pics for anyone interested....

Some pics of it before resto....(not really any to show how much rust there was but we replaced about every panel on the car)

1/17/2006 10:53:49 PM

DAMN son, seems you do some quality work. two very beautiful cars

1/17/2006 11:01:47 PM

the fact that he finished what he started is impressive enough

1/18/2006 12:05:33 AM

dear lord i want to hear that thing run... chambered pipes... hmmhmmhahahaa

1/18/2006 9:54:18 AM

I still had that original pic in my gallery.

1/18/2006 10:12:27 AM

^^ sounds pretty good running....real damn loud though. besides practically having straight pipes, it's got hooker headers, pete jackson gear drive and a pretty radical cam, i have some video of it running but it was before it had exhaust (just open headers).....ill work on getting it online when i get it loaded to my computer

1/19/2006 1:08:28 PM

that is a beautiful '64 there.

i tried so hard to get dad to paint his '67 the same color but he went with '65 vette yellow instead (don't remember GM's designation for it).


it is a bitch and a half to get ahold of those fucking headlight bezels for a decent price for '62-'65s.

i remember seeing that shitter on campus last year.

1/20/2006 12:42:30 AM

Damn, what do your parents do for a living!????

Only video I have of it runnin as of now...Ill work on getting a better one.

But just about every penny that's gone into the Nova has been mine so what my parents do for a living doesn't really apply (but my mom is a high school teacher and my dad manages a boat dealership in Greensboro in case you were really wondering)

I envy your cars, but even more your shop!

1/24/2006 3:47:43 PM

1/24/2006 4:17:55 PM

uhh, i wasn't trying to be a dick, its not a personal shop either, its a business.

1/24/2006 4:24:52 PM

1/24/2006 4:41:32 PM

im drooling

1/24/2006 5:04:54 PM

1/24/2006 5:09:01 PM

Didn't take it as dickishness. Just more envy and a little humor.
It's like those dudes on two guys garage or whatever with all the toys and all the space
and I've got like a single carport, and the wife gets to use that!

anyway
I'd like to see someone do a real automechanic show like "shadetree mechanic"
where it's really shot under a tree, and the host spends 15 minutes looking for the screw
he just lost in the grass! Now that's a reality show
