A 66 nova would be my choice, try and get a hold of a semi completed project.. it will be the least expensive way to get your hands on one, and they usually come rust free and with a myriad of goodies ... |
Tell me about the whole buy a car that has good resale value, I have so much money dumped into my Nissan and I couldn't even sell the thing for more that 15k. I could maybe sell it for 10k. Big mistake there.
Why is the Chevelles chassis so superior to the Nova?
Do you mean solid or ploy mounts for the engine or the chassis?
I will most likley buy a car that is semi completed because I really dont want to mess with paint and body work so much. I can fab and do engine work, but body work is not my best feat.
I like this one, the guy has had it for sale for a while. I would have to get the price down, but its black and thats what I want.
70' Nova
