Re: Bill Thomas Fastback Novas ?
Wow, I had a chance to buy one of these Novas in the late 80's in the Denver Co area. It was at a place called Wizard Machine. It was just sitting outside with no engine or trans, but had a late 50's Olds rearend. They said it last ran with a blown Hemi. I called Arnie beswick at that time and he remembered the cars, and it was his belief that 4 were built and that Bill Thomas had intended to build 6. This may be one of the cars known to exist but if not I would be glad to do a little research on the machine shop to see if they remember where it whent. They were only asking 1500.00

Re: Bill Thomas Fastback Novas ?
Some of the cars ran olds rears. If 4 cars were built Then it would go like this...
1 Alan Green 2 CKC 3 Dixie Twister 4 #51 (Scott's car) 5 The L.A. car that was destroyed Thats 5 of 3 or is it 5 of 6 I mean 5 of 10  Yes I said TEN!Now....... ask me how I know  Question..... Why is it that after ALL these years this is still a mystery? Is it because its a 62 Yes 62 Nova Chevy II?

I just want more (yes MORE) pictures to prove it. How did Huston Platt get his car & what happened to it? Is the L.A. car just a rumor & who owened it? Enquiring minds want to know........

Don't play games. If you have something to share - then share it.

I have allot of knowledge about these cars that I'm more then willing to share for those that want to know. I just want to make sure I got all the facts right & when the time is right I will share it. So if you think I'm playing games then don't check back for updates A good friend warned me about this site...... Maybe he was right
