I agree, most folks won't know what is changed and the one's in the know will be impressed with the craftmanship and approach. I am a huge custom body work fan. The more it is changed and tweaked the more I like it. And I believe the biggest compliment that can be made is that they cannot tell what has been changed! because that means you did it right and everything fit's as it should. I think this going to be a fantastic car when it is finished.:thumbsup: :thumbsup:
You all have a great day later Larry www.llcustomperformance.com

There is www.steetrodding.com, not as well organised as this or www.trifive.com site's, but if your into street rods it is still pretty neat. Also there is www.hotrodhotline.com and www.americanrodsandrides.com . hot rod hotline has forums and alot other interesting stories and features. American rods and rides is more about cars and parts and source's but still good info to have. hope this helps. have a great day :thumbsup: Larry

Spoiler
 
HAVE YOU SEEN THE 1970 NOVA ON THE COVER OF THIS MONTH'S SUPER CHEVY ???

THEY USED ALL CAMARO PARTS ON THIS BUILD.
THE CAMARO REAR DECK SPOILER LOOKS GOOD ON IT.

BUT THE PAINT JOB, I DONT LIKE THE STRIP ON THE HOOD.

IT JUST LOOKS OUT OF PLACE.

BUT IT'S A COOL CONCEPT.

IT HAS A 302 Z-28 MOTOR WITH THE CROSS RAM INDUCTION, HOUNDS TOOTH INTERIOR, CAMARO CENTER CONSOL WITH 4 SPEED & TACH, THE HOOD LOOKS LIKE A 1969 CAMARO COWL INDUCTION.

BUT YOUR DAD'S NOVA LOOKS BETTER THEN THE CAR IN THE MAG & IT'S ONLY IN RAW METAL.

Thanks for the comments!

since most are done exactly the same. (Grasshopper stance, 15" Weld racing wheels, no trim, stock interior and painted black.)
Exactly! So true
