Default Re: 1970 L78 Nova 5 blade fan sold on e-bay WOW!!

the nova is an L-78 project car that needed to get to iowa..

somebody has to keep ken busy, i'm trying to do my part

rick was able to get the pick-up of the car and parts handled quickly, tom schultz provided the transportation and additional assistance.

bottom line.... they were THE answer on getting er done

Alan, looks to be a neat project. I am waiting to see the orange Nova come together. You pick the best people to get these cars done by. Where did you find this car? In your Bio you only mention Camaros, you may want to include Novas now too.

that my friend is a most excellent suggestion
consider it done.

ken and his staff are knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with. and if they get out of line i can just give becky a call, she'll grab ken by the collar

these long distance transactions can be a bit hair raising, though in the end there are a bunch of really good people in the hobby and especially involved with this web site...

i'd like to see some more pic's of that silver nova, wasn't that a new car you just picked up?

Bruce, that poor silver Nova just sits in the garage under the car cover. It seems that every week end the weather or work are keeping me from bringing the car out of the garage. I promise I will have more pictures soon. Alan, I saw your name on a project car we both owned at different times. It looks like you are finding some neat cars. I agree with your Bio that there is not a neater feeling than being part of having an old car come together and seeing your vision become reality.

that project we both owned for a while was going to require quite a bit of work, parts, etc. and... it never would have been silver, you made the right choice.

Thanks Allan, that other car taught me a couple of lessons about being over my head and some other stuff. It looks like you are making all the right choices. As neat as the silver car is to me. I still want a car that Schonye has put together at some point in the future.

I feel very privileged to have accomplished that one now.

Thanks Ken!

Here's the handiwork of Ken, Joe, and Kevin.
