Can't believe that some of the original paint is still in good condition!! This picture was taken 9/24/22.

That's because you took such good care of it. You waxed the pinstripe off the side in places

Well, there's that, but where I didn't do a good job, like the roof and deck lid, the paint is starting to "act" its age!!

Let me know your travel plans Bruce. Maybe we can connect when you're here?!

This was my 72. Original paint, 350/350, ac, ps, pdb. I sold it and another car to get a more family oriented vehicle 5 years ago. I miss it!

Nice Nova Andy! I really like that color combo!

Found this cam card from when I rebuilt the engine in my original 1970 L78...circa 1976.

General Kinetics unit...that was a long time ago

You guys keep posting pics of pristine Novas. Here is the $400 NY street brawler. 71 350/300(ish) SS 4spd w/ dents and rust. Had a great time street racing this rig against 5.0 Mustangs, GN Buicks and IROC's (notice the Autometer Gauges T shirt, lol)
