Looking good Shane. What transmission are you using? It didn’t appear your tunnel was raised or enlarged.

Thank you! I’m planning on running a 4L65E. I wanted to avoid modding the trans tunnel and therefore having to raise the driveshaft tunnel.

Well, been a minute since I’ve posted any updates on the Nova. I took a break to do some home projects, rewired my Dad’s street rod and bought an enclosed trailer where my OCD kicked in as I was building out the interior. I was a little burned out on the car after getting it to roller status but now I’m fired up again and ready to make some progress. I started by getting the remaining few trim items I needed as well as the bumpers, hood, headlight buckets, bumper brackets, etc. to complete the front end. It’s scheduled to go to the body shop to get the front sheet metal fitted at the end of this month. Lots more to come so stay tuned. In the meantime, here’s a few pics…

GM NOS headlight bezels I scored…




Got the transmission in today as well…4L70E

Glad to see you back in action! I've been wondering what happened to your build as you seem to make a lot of progress quickly. Your build threads are killer!

Thank you, I appreciate that! It feels good to be back at it!

Here’s some pics of the front brake lines, battery mount, fuel tank vent and battery shutoff I got done as well…trying to get everything situated that’ll allow me to set the engine/trans in the car as well as get the front sheet metal stuck back on it so I can transport it easier to the body shop. Also wanting to get some of the components situated so I can get other smaller items done around them as well. Thought I had everything necessary to mount my steering column until I figured out the swinging pedal assembly I bought a long time ago was for a 66, not a 67…turns out there’s a big difference so got one located and waiting on it to show up but it set me back about a week on my timeline…guess I should’ve done a test fit a long time ago!
