Bill --

Are you hanging the fenders off the down bars or 'conventionally'?

Sweet build!

Love the way you did the down bars to the firewall.

Coming along great Billy. Can't wait to see it.

BTW, you have a bulb out in the shop. I'll come change for a test drive :lol: .

millertime179 05-25-2010 04:33 PM

this is an awesome car and i love all the fab work and attention to detail. Very nice build and i wouldn't change a thing i love everything about this car. I like the paint i painted my 69 camaro cyber gray metalic which is very close to the same color. i have always liked the 68-72 novas but this is by far the best built nova ive ever seen. looks great and keep up the good work!:thumbsup:

Didn't come close to making it to columbus. I was tied up with work projects for a few weeks, and getting a couple customer projects finished up. I'm back on the car now. Here are a couple update shots. I'll have a fresh batch this weekend.
