I posted this along time ago but ok to post for the new guys.

Original Nova built in 1973/1974 era from my area. Original 396 car.
Original builder sold it in mid '86 to a woman who bought it for her grandson...and it still sits basically in the original form. Other than some 80's style red radiator hose wrap and a few other small do dad mods it is identical to when it was original built.
Bottom photo is how it sits today.

Many people have tried to buy the car but the guy won't sell it.

Top photo is of the car at a show in the mid 70's. The stance, skinny Cragars up front and that tunnel ram are just plain wicked.

Bottom photo is of the interior taken a few years back

Dave here are those pictures you sent me several years back. This car was in my area. Last I heard (at least a few years ago), the owner still has the car.

Tuff looking car. Those ladder bars made for an interesting ride with the leaf-spring suspension!

Marlin was talking about "Ladder-Bars"on a Nova. That's what I am talking about in the pictyre. This whole page is Novas. Keep it up guys. Paul

Photoman fro SNS posted the pic and said "I took that pic the summer of '78. That car was on the cover of the April 1978 issue of Popular Hot Rodding. Well, actually it was a picture of the tunnel ram small block on the cover. There was a three page feature on the car inside."

That looks like an SnW bolt in driver hoop?

Nasty looking Nova!

Just another cool nova pic I found when looking for the link of the red one above.

Reminds me of a Maroon 69 Nova a guy had when I worked at Shop N Bag. That Nova had a light blue and red/pink ribbons on the side. Anyone from the Glenside/Willow Grove area remember the car? Wish I had a picture of that one.
