What frame are you using?? SRIII :excited: Kidnapping Billy would not be an invite....more like a motivated escort LOL

Thought I would re-post some of the pics that were lost in the big server shift. I have been slowly making progress on the Nova. Installed Rear 1/4 glass and regulators, weatherstripping, tail lamps, fuel fill door, removed front fenders and hood, bell housing dial indicated, clutch installed, trans assembled to engine and finally, I installed the engine/trans combo yesterday!!! Just have a few odds and ends and it will be secured in place and I can start laying everything else out. Hope to make some more progress today .

Damn that thing is dusty!!!, that's what I get for having the doors open all day!! Weather was too nice not to enjoy the fresh air, we have had so much rain I was considering planting a rice patty on the rear acreage :drowninga:

Wow that's great progress Jeff. :thumbsup:

If you do put a crop in, 'Thug Rice' might be very popular with a certain segment of motorsports...


lol

I would be interested in hearing about where to source the parts for the rear end. You have a c6 style unit bearing right?

Pfff, I wish it was SRIII. We went with at new stock replacement from Vette Products. It's at powdercoat now, so hopefully have an update soon.

Hey, Billy, Bill, and I will come down and bring fold up chairs and an easy-up, supervise your build to make sure you do everything right. All you have to do is keep us hydrated with drink of choice. I have a kegerator I could fit two kinds in :cheers: Oh, and Billy likes Cheez-its on hand. We should have a few weeks in June open in the schedule...

Looking good Jeff. 81 days
