Gotta say the car was wicked, but i have to admit the hour long talk with the owner was even better, we stood in the parking lot of the hotel and shot the shi% and that man is EXACTLY what we as builders dream of having for a customer, hats off to all involved and it was really cool to hear how he kept the whole build from his youngest son for 15 months so he could surprize him with the finished car!!! Very COOL. Rad rides did a wicked job as usual!!

Great talking to you guys as well!

Quick video i made...enjoy and turn the speakers up!

A source tells me he can look out the window and see the Nova at the Rack. Is it getting the suspension dialed in, or trying out some new skinz? He says it's AWESOME looking! Sure looks it by the pictures. It turned out great!

Thanks! yes we are reallly happy with how it turned out. Now time to get everything dialed in. Tune, suspension, audio etc.

Ive had a bunch of PMs regarding the tire and rims sizing on the nova.

front rim 18x8---- 245 40 18 tire size
rear rim 18x10---- 295 45 18 tire size

Great Car - I'm sure you'll have a blast with it!

Derek,

Any idea when a fairly extensive collection of high quality pics of the finished product will be on the web...if at all?
