More Nova's coming out of the woodwork . Great looking start. I'll be following this one closely.

What I'd give for mine to be that solid after blasting...

Yeah, this one is the cleanest I've EVER seen after blasting.

Thanks

A welding god!


When Ironworks does his TIG welding class -- you need to be one of the instructors...


It was a surprise to me that the Nova shares the firewall with the Camaro...

Appreciate the compliment, but I'm no God at welding.

I'd be open to go down to Roger's shop and offer my services. I've always wanted to check out the shop, very talented group of guys.

Thanks Greg

Very nice work. Nice frame rail notch, I had to do the same. Nice floor pan welding, hard to weld to that thin floor pan. Only with a TIG!

Head, I gotta pop over there one day and check it out. You're in my backyard and I'm over at B&L all the time. Looks wicked.

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.
