67 Nova update by Goolsby Customs
 
This Nova came to us a few weeks ago by a good friend of ours over in Atlanta. Overall the car was pretty decent with an LS7 and 6-speed , but the suspension , interior and obviously the paint job was a little dated, so we will be doing a few updates to all of those and make this Nova a great driver that will hopefully turn some heads in the process. Plans include , DSE Quadralink rear with new 9", coilover conversion for front , Big Wilwoods all the way around, new wheels and tires, shave drip rails, handles, gas fill, wipers, cowl vents, rear tail panel, and some custom dash work followed up by some carpet and seat work by M and M Interiors, along with some minor repairs and upgrades along the way.

The old 9" and Cal Tracks bars will make way for the new narrowed Moser 9" and DSE goodies

While we were under the car doing the rear supension we noticed the rear trans mount was solid with no bushing so we modified that to accept a bushing to reduce vibration transfer and be a little stronger with the new mount, nothing groundbreaking just some quick fab that anyone could do

Looks cool Josh!!! Keep the pictures coming!!! Oh and see if you can't get him to stretch that rear wheel opening !! The car looks so much better, the opening is just a little to small on those Novas

Ed.Capen 04-16-2013 12:16 PM

Josh and Jonathan, Looks cool what you have done so far.
What color is the car getting painted?

This one will not get a crazy amount of mods , to keep this under a budget, as well as no since in getting too carried away and overbuilding from the intended final use of the car..............now there is another Nova here at the shop that might be a slightly different story
