Well, while I probably wouldn't do that myself, I could think of worse fates for a left over Grand National engine. Not many, though.

I dont think that it is soo much that it still has the stock firewall in it......I still have the stock firewall in my car but mine is a little different then this. even though i dont have the stock header going though the firewall as he does......lol I would agree on that!

I've always liked the lines of the early Novas, to me they have a very nice and very "tidy" style to start with, and when too much gets added to them, well, lets just say the result isn't always good.

This particular car would look a lot better if the stance could be improved, that would be the first thing I'd change. Again, not to bash, just my opinion...-Rob

I see a similar car at most of the Goodguy's shows I see in Pleasanton. Although it looks finished here. Twin turbo buford six makes it a crazy motor. Too blinged out for me though. I like more subdued and functional. Oh, and if you know the guy, let him know that the heater hose laying on the header isn't a good idea.

Default Nice Car

The car is nice. Not 150K nice but nice. I like the rear IRS and front suspension setup, the interior is nice two. But I would have expected to see a lot more for the money. Maybe he was over exaggerating....

Red face

A little flat black paint behind the grille, and on all the suspension components would do wonders for that car.

Anybody see the license plate? At least Yoko is doing something with all that Beatles money but nobody ever said she had good taste, right? LOL

Maybe she didn't get the memo about less is more......

Put a LS2-7 into that car and it would be perfect. I like the car personally, but not that engine in that car.
