Looking good. Can't wait to see more updates. I'm also doing a 68. It's an Acadian which is a Nova with Acadian badging. What are your plans for the build?

Nice project. It looks like you made some nice progress.

Is that ash on the car oh has it just been stored for a reeeeeeeally long time?

Welcome & good luck!

thanks.i've been following your build. very nice.for now i am gona fix all the rust underneath.dse tubs and 3"drop front and rear.i bought 17 x8 and 17 x11 tt2 W/245/17 and 315 17 to help the budget.i bought a 12 bolt 3.90 gear. i would love to do a ls2 6sp.the motor the car came with is a 350 with double hump heads and a nice little cam.i threw some parts at it and got it runnning and driving around in the driveway.ran nicely.so i may sell that engine and trans to help fund a ls2 6 speed. i feel it's gona be a long process,it's nice that i have a 70 chevelle big block to have some fun in,so no big hurry.i rather take my time.

You will like the Kumos XS . They heat up quick . I use them for road course duty . They dont like the cold though . They feel like there flat spotted for the first mile .
