Thank You, I keep reminding myself that this one's not a race so we'll see how it goes!

For sure! It's got a little too much patina!

Nice project. Good luck with the build.

Got some parts in for the Nova. Went with the full floor/trunk pan and some other goodies from Classic Industries. Since the car didn't have a spec of flooring, frame rails, or firewall in it to use as a reference, I was concerned about getting those items in the correct location since I don't have a car to take measurements from. I've essentially got all the front panels for the body so when the dust settles, I'll have a rock solid body shell with the only original panels left being the roof and dash...

Here's a shot with the firewall sitting on it just to get an idea how things will line up...I ordered some full rocker panels since the description for the floor pan in Classic's website didn't specify if the rear frame rails or inner rockers were included. Conveniently, all of those items were attached, however, the inner rockers were bent during transport so rather then removing the outers from the new assemblies, I'll just remove the damaged inners from the floor and weld in the new assemblies once the body's mounted and squared up.

WOW! That will be a hell of a project. I like the big one piece floors. Did it come on that frame/jig?
