My Old 70 Nova SS, The White Night





The whole group of us lined up together.. My Nova with a bunch of my Buddies and their Chevelles...



My Friend's 70 LS5 car he just finished, frame off resto.. Very Very Nice, Fathom Blue White Stripe Car w/paperwork















My Friend's 70 L78 car....





Check out the nose stripes on this camaro...



















This Nova is "serious business." I know the owner, this car is an 11.0 second street car.. The motor is a small block 396 cubic inch and was just redone by a local, well known engine builder.. You should have heard this thing when it pulled in!! This car nearly lifted the tires off the ground when it launched leaving down the road.. Traction is a real problem for this car...











Cool old vette set up to race... Had a big block stuffed in it..



Very cool Hornet with a luggage rack on the deck..



Very Cool 68 Wagon w/327 motor. This car was optioned to the max!! had fiber optics, AC, a tach in the dash, 8 track player, power etc..... I loved this car... Very different!!

Thanks!

Neat pics Rich! Thanks for sharing...

[ORIGLS6]

Cool stuff Rich. Thanks for taking the time to show us.

No disrespect to anyone else in the show but.................. that triple Black '68 Chevelle next to you makes me drool every time I see it!

Of course, I'm also a bit partial to White Novas.




Any info on this car?

Rich - great shots. I can smell Autumn in the air. Your "white Night" looks awesome. Thanks!

[Mr. Chevy]

Thanks Sam!!

Dennis, the triple black 68 Chevelle is a very good friend of mine's car.. Awesome Ride!! All original sheet metal & # match 396/325 horse car... We just rebuilt the motor in it last year..

The 1970 tuxedo black Nova SS L78 car is owned by another friend of mine.. It is a "real deal" L78 column shift turbo 400 car, bench seat.. It is like the twin to mine but in black.. The car has very low mileage, like under 10,000. The original owner was my friend's uncle who is still around and comes up to the cruises when his nephew brings the car. The car was drag raced in the early 1970s at Norwalk and Dragway 42.. It had the name "Black Sabbath" & "Black Eye" airbrushed on the doors during its racing life.. My friend is slowly putting the car back together stock.. During its racing life the heater and firewall box were removed, the brake booster, as well as other small misc. weight distribution items.. The car is arrow stright just like my Buddie's 68 Chevelle... He just had it repainted.. It is an original tuxedo black car.. Very Nice... I'll post some other pictures of it...

Dennis, more shots of this Nova... I tried to get him to bring it to Vettefest but he was not too receptive to the long trike to Chicago...













Cool Drag News Sticker still on the rear bumper from the 70s

So Rich...are you going to send me some members rides shots before it gets "wintery" out there?

[Mr. Chevy]

Yes, I want to take better pictures of the car when the leaves change a bit more and in the park somewhere... I am planning the trip to Vettefest with the car...
