'68 Nova LS1/T56

[NOPANTS68]

I'm putting the Nova up for sale as I just don't seem to drive it much. I'm starting a new business and have no time for the car right now. It's a fun street car that always attracts a crowd at shows. It's turn key reliable and ready to race or just take out for ice cream. The car can be converted back to PT with a wheel change and a shock adjustment. I've had 17x11s on it with 315s and think the car can swallow a 335 if you were careful with backspacing. The 6 speed conversion and new 9 inch have less than 500 miles on them. The trans has 50K on it and has been a great upgrade, making the car more versitile. Looking for $26K. Here's the specs:

A couple things to fix- gas gauge and volt meter went on the fritz last week. Could be a ground. One of the cutouts has decided to no longer open. All will be fixed before it leaves my garage. The weakest areas are the carpet and a couple tiny spots in the paint that you wouldn't notice unless I pointed them out.
