Default Nova for fathers day

Been a while since I have been on here. Got laid off 6 months ago so I had to put my project " torino 10" on hold. Besides working on a Ridler car for 2014 I built this Nova for a friend. His Dad doesn't know about it and he will get a big surprise at a car show this sunday, fathers day. Its at the upholstery shop now getting an interior upgrade.
A short list of the credentials:
GM crate motor 525HP LS
Hurst Driveline T56 kit
Ford 9"
Mini tubs
Custom torque arm rr susp.
Strongarms with air bags up front
Wilwood 6 piston frt 4 piston rr brake kit
Revolution guages
Aeromotive fuel pump in a modified stock tank
Custom 2.5" SS exhaust
plus a million little things

And so will the tears. I'm mean, I'm pretty sure a Father's Day gift like this would bring any man to tears and probably to his knees too. Good looking car.

Very nice job. Would love to have more detail about the engine, headers, engine mounts, accessory drive used. Did you use the GM harness kit that comes with pedal, ECU, fuse panel etc?
