Another Speedtech Nova
 

Speedtech has just finished a 69 Nova for a local customer who actually came in to purchase a set of headers for this Nova, when it showed up it had a SBC already had the TKO 500 in it. well the header order got cancelled and we reordered a set for an LS. and that was it. the car was completly stripped and ended up needing all new body panels, except the roof and trunk lid. floor was good too. got the mini tub treatment full Track Time suspension Package.
The idea of this car was to make it SUPER drivable long distance and comfortable. So we put a stock 430 HP ls3 17" Forgelines with Michelin PS2 335 35 17 and 265 40 17 to soak up some of the road. super quite dynomax mufflers, comfortable Cobra seats.
This car is a dream to drive.

Blake, that dash and gauge set is BAD ASS! Well done boys. :thumbsup:

Sic!:thumbsup:

Wow that is a very sweet lookin Nova :hail:
Great job Blake!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

:hail: :hail: :hail:

More pics! More pics!

Love this Nova! :thumbsup: Do you have a vendor for the gauges? And do you have a pic from the side? Just curious how a 26" tire fills the wheelhouse on this one. I'm limited to a 17" wheel and it looks a little short on my Nova.

YOU'RE NEXT!

Awesome car! I really like the dash and gauges!

Thanks a lot! I've seen these gauges somewhere but could not recall the company name. Wheel fit perfect!

Beautiful ride but DAMN those headers are close to the ground!!

John

Nice car guys! What other tricky stuff did you put in it? :hail:

hey John actually they are not that bad 4" i think. they do not rub...... Yet.

i cant tell YOU!!!

lol

not alot of trick stuff just a straight forward build, this is a "Budget" build something most can afford and is the direction we are moving towards on our builds.

Looks great Blake, I really like it. :thumbsup:

Bad ass!

Looks Great Guys

really nice car . i also have a 69 nova that is being rest-modded. you got my color combination and the guages.

Very nice Blake! :hail:

Oh so now your going to copy.... :_paranoid lol just bustin ya, it looks way better in person

Pure awesome Love the dash

I am not a big fan of Novas but this is by far the best looking Nova I have ever seen.
Good job Blake

Great looking Nova. That dash/gauge set-up is sick!

kevin miller

Awesome!!! Love the gauges!!!

Looks good. Will you be putting together a suspension package for the 1st gen Novas?

Great looking car Blake :thumbsup: . Not crazy about therear spoiler though.

Good looking build Blake. Really like the dash. We need more pics of that :)

Sweet looking Nova guys!!!:thumbsup:

Your not trying hard enuf. LOL

Blake, what is the gas cap from? Is it the Ride Tech one?

Nice
 

Nice Build guys,:thumbsup: Not digging the subframe and headers hanging out the bottom from the side pick tho, Is that the way Novas are or just the subframe you guys are using? not hating just saying. liking the wheels and dash:thumbsup:

That is the way Novas are, the floor is not tucked up as far as a Camaro. remember how high the Novas sit. The floor is flatter and they have an extra 3/8 spacer at the firewall mount. The headers are only 3/4" below the subframe. On the Camaro with 1/2 height body mounts the headers are 3/8" from the floor. so something has to give.

Yea i think that is where it came from. it was on the shelf when we needed one so i am not positive

See that is the beauty of this hobby. the Guy who paid the bill LOVES it.
and he is the guy who matters.

:thumbsup:

maybe you should just buy one???

then you can see it everyday. :lol:

It is amazing what a new set of headers can do for a car!

Great looking car. Nice stance and I like the 17's. The tires make the car look more aggressive.
