i trade old redline hotwheels with several guys over the internet.one guy mentioned recently when we were talking that he sold his harrel nova to purchase his house.i asked some questions and asked for pics.he says he has tons of pics in a scrapbook but no scanner ect.
he says the car resides in a collection with a yenko and a nickey camaro.he remembered the car as hugger orange with 427 400 auto with tri power.3000 rpm trans brake and a ultra rare transfer case that allowed the rear ratio to change,i have the guys name he sold it to but i didnt want to post in case the dont want it known ect.but i figured the owner would wanna see those pics he has anyhow.anyone know this car

Yep, spoke with him a week or so ago. He is the one who got the Clary's started in this hobby, as he sold us our first Yenko. Super nice guy, and loves musclecars. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/

VIPERICH;

I'd scan the copies just for the chance to post another Nova at chevynova.org. I have scaned pictures for several others. PM if you would like me to scan and post them.

Is this a Harrell that most of us have not heard of? I knew of 4 colors, but had not heard of a hugger orange one. Tri power I could see, but almost sounds like it has a hone overdrive. Whats the deal? Schonye [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Yep, the tri-power and hone-o-drive sounds more like a Motion car.

Viperich,

Is this Nova a 1969 (or 1968) ?? It sounds like a Dick Harrell modified 1969 Nova if it was Hugger Orange ?? I also thought you were talking about Jude's 1968 Dick Harrell / Fred Gibb 427 Nova at first . . . [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

I'll second that about Cliff being a great guy . . . [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img] I learned a lot about 1967 Pace Cars from him many many years ago . . .
