Steve Ford's 73 Chevy Nova Hatchback
No punn intended with this post, but I just wanted to share another Nova with all of the guru's out there. sc69sam asked me to take a look at this car for a friend and here I am documenting the resto! Saving another PA rot box from the crusher. The car was originally Antique white with black bucket interior and a 4spd 350. The trim tag was MIA from the firewall, but I had remnants of the original colors. Check it out and tell me what you think.
Thanks, Nova Jed

I just wanted to show some proof that I am not re-bodying this car. [image]

Re: Steve Ford's 73 Chevy Nova Hatchback
I do have an album of pictures to check out.
Steve Ford's Nova I don't want to bore you with the cut and paste pictures. I will post more progress when I get more pictures down loaded. I think this car is gonna prove to me wether or not I am a true body man! LOL Sammy, I hope Steve appreciates it.

Re: Steve Ford's 73 Chevy Nova Hatchback
Why? (I hope it has some sort of sentimental value!)

Man those PA cars sure get rusty. Good luck on the resto job. Keep the pictures coming.  [/ QUOTE ] That's a true rust-belt project! ...as long as it needs quarters and fender work also. That's why I cringe when an original rust free car is gutted for a full pro-street/race treatment when there are plenty more like this that mother nature already did some of the work for you. -Looking at it as you have to cut most of the same stuff out anyway... Neat car, good luck on the body work.
