My son got his first car today, 69 Nova

[notstock71]

My son got his 1st car today. It's a 69 Nova which has been off the road & in a barn since 1988. Its nothing "fancy", just a 307 Powerglide car. He has already decided he wants it redone in the original butternut yellow. He's only 10 so we have 6 years to get it done. It pretty much needs everything but for how original the car is I couldn't say no and the $1400 price seemed pretty fair to me. Now the good stuff, pictures.

How cool are those wheels!!!

Is that grill original? were there more than one style for 69?



I'm having flashbacks!!

As far as we know it is original, theres no signs anything has ever been changed or replaced other than the wheels which obviously have been on there a LONG time. Im not sure on the brand, cant tell from the outside.

Awesome Lewis... I think it will turn out great for him and I love the fact he wants to keep the original color. I have some extra parts I can throw your way to help the little guy out.
