Dedicated Day 2 Thread

You need to picture frame the lace with a red pin stripe, and fuzz the edges in light gold before shooting the red lace. Maybe think about the sail panels running a tapering stripe forward along the edges of the roof too.

I have some pics of one of the super tuned fathom blue Gibb/Harrell Novas done somewhat like that only in cob webs.

Actually, finding good bulk lace is kinda hard anymore. Paisley style was the best.

Schonye, I bought a huge table cloth from a lady on ebay a couple years ago to use for a lace paint project one of these days. It's from the 60's and is a light green color with paisley stuff everywhere. She told me it would look great on my table in a formal room... I wanted to tell her it was gonna look great after I sprayed paint through it onto a Chevy... But I kept that to myself

If no one minds I would like to post some pictures that I may have posted before somewhere but might be fitting in this thread. I really dig this stuff. My friends all spend thier pay checks on Billet while I am looking for extended cross member bolts or a Accel super coil with the early logo or something.... I got weird friends


Anyway, here are a couple of pics before I crash for the night. Embossed logos in MSD boxes are "Boss".... They oooze of day 2



Here are the crossmember bolts a friend gave me (he runs a set on his Nova too)

Oh, I want to throw this in too.... They speak for themselves...





I found these in an old speed shop in kentucky. My black 68 Nova had a set of these in it when I bought it. In addition to these it had Eelco Ball Joint extensions. It really stood up

I saw in my last Summit Racing catalog that they are making a limited production run of the old embossed style MSD box. I also read that MSD will refurb your old style box with new guts but I have not confirmed that myself.

[Tommy]

I saw that too, its an anniversary edition and the logo is centered instead of being on the left side. It also reads "40 years of ignition on the front. Having new guts in an old box would be cool though

</div></div> What was the purpose of those? Just easier to get at when you're wrenching?

Those Moroso Transmission Crossmember bolts are great. I've used them before and it's really a downer that they've been discontinued, but then again it's not too much hassle to make a set up with longer Grade 8 bolts and running a thin jam nut against the shank of the bolt. You could even tack-weld the jam nut in place if you'd like. Those longer bolts make it much easier to finger-start the bolts through those small holes in the framerails. I also like to fabricate a &quot;nut plate&quot; to go on top of the frame rails instead of using two standard small 3/8 nuts with an open end wrench balanced on them sight unseen. Just a simple strip of steel about 2.00 inches long, about .750 wide and about .375 thick with two drilled &amp; tapped holes the correct distance apart. Once BOTH bolts are finger started, you no longer need a wrench on top of the bolts.....only a ratchet on the bottom transforms this into a simple one tool job!

Joe Stef at B&amp;B Performance still builds and sells 'em. I've used them in all of my Camaros and Novas over the years.
