71 Motion Nova?

It's coming along slowly but making progress. I don't have much free time to spend on it. I have spent the summer cleaning up the underside of the car. It's looks really good, solid clean metal for the most part. I'm close to getting it done and then painting it. I really liked the Nova on ebay as it looks just about like mine minus the side pipes.

How about some pics

I'll second that. Let's see some pics and hear more details about the car. Is this a documented BM Nova?

Sure thing as soon as I figure out how to post them. I have confirmed from the original owner that is was sold through baldwin chevrolet and is an original phase III car. I came across the car about 16 or so years ago in Trenton on a trip to NJ and bought it for about $2K. It still has most of the phase III goodies such as the CD ignition, hood tach and rear suspension. The fuel pumps are gone but the hole is still in the trunk where is was attached. It was originally Blue with a black vinyl top which I hope to put back on the car and get it looking like it did when new.

Sounds like a cool car and am looking forward to some pics.

A word of friendly advice, spend the $1,500 and get the car documented through Joel Rosen asap. You never know how long he will continue to document them, and without that, if and when you ever needed to sell, without a letter from Joel and/or other paper, you have nothing but a 36 year old Nova. Not that a 69 Nova is a bad thing but it will obviously be worth at least 10 times more as a documented BM car.

Here's one, I'll get more up soon.

Wow! Cool pic

Might this car be the mag article car? Did this car ever go to Puerto Rico?

Email the pictures to me, I'll post them for you. I totally agree with the advise COPO gave you. Get ahold of Joel Rosen, and have that Nova of yours documented. Sure, it will cost you $1,500.00, but if it turns out to be an "authentic" 69 BM Nova, you won't be sorry in the long run, that's if you ever need to sell it. I would much rather have Joel's approval and signed certificate, than what the original owner told you. Good luck!
