dad's nova finally finished (almost!)
 

Finally got dad's Nova mini-tubbed & repainted. We put the mini-subframe kit upfront, subframe connectors w/ offset spring hangers, s-10 rearend, 18x7 & 18x20 coys with 285/30's out back.

What do you guys think?

that was a mistake, sorry, we're running 20x10s out back with a 5" backspacing.

Looks really sharp. :thumbsup: How does it drive?

how's it drive?
 

Well I'm anxious to drive it again. Yesterday I made a comment that it didn't feel as strong as it should since we are running 4:10 gears now (replacing 3:08s). Dad mashed the pedal & I checked the carb out & it wasn't opening but at the most 3/4 of what it should. So it should run pretty good since it has a fairly stout 355 in it & a 700R tranny.

As for the suspension, it is very tight but didn't change the ride quality that much even with the low profile tires. I think it needs a quicker ratio steering box but I wouldn't know where to even start to find one of those. I guess that will be a project for later on down the road. Dad is wanting me to figure out a way to put a sway bar out back so I may look into that after we get he wiring done.

Thanks again guys for the compliments!
