'69 Nova, kinda pro-touring
 

Hey everyone, this is my personal project. Not exactly a corner carving pro-touring car. More resto-rod I guess you call it. Trying to get it done before spring but most(all) of my time is spent on customer work. It will be powered by a 496 with '69 GM snowflake aluminum heads, a GM tri-power, TKO 600, 12 bolt. Factory rubber mat, bench seat interior. Radio and heater delete. No options, all business!

As it sits today

last one for now

nice, thats goona look killer when done. love that hood too.

Nice Nova. What color Orange is that?

awesome!

Reminds me of a 'Dick Harrel' type of car. Plain Jane 6cyl stripper model w/a dealer installed drivetrain on steroids :cool: .

nice project!

What sizes on the wheel/tire set-up?

Very nice. That does look good.
Those tires look great on there. Keep us posted.:thumbsup:

The wheels are 18x10's and 18x7's. The tires are Nitto 555's

Thanks, it's actually red. The pictures look more orange though. It's scarlett red, a PPG mixing toner.

looks great man.

Love the redline treatment. Where or how did you do that to nittos??

shock mounting bar
 

where did you get that bolt on rear mounting bar for the shocks?

Nice Deez! You sure have made a lot of progress on the car!!!!:thumbsup:

Thanks, the tires are done by Diamond Back Classics. They are smooth with the redline raised. They can red ring about any tire.

The rear shock mounting kit is from No Limit Engineering. Its a bolt in deal. I do need to take it back out and notch it above the rearend.

Looks killer!

john

what wheels are you running? they look sharp

so clean! looks great!

Nova turned out sharp. I plan to use the same hood for my Nova. I'm going to go with black with a white stinger. Those are the CL205's arn't they? I've got the same wheels too. Your car is very traditional looking with lots of modern suspension upgrades. Beautiful car! Thanks for sharing!

Very, very Nice!!!! I love it.

Looks killer! Awesome stance and that tire/wheel combo is sick!:thumbsup:
