I remember that Nova. That was my first frame off restoration to be critiqued on the web site. Man, that was a good/bad/good learning experience. I have all my cars critiqued here now. I'm into pain. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif

Rick, What new projects do you have brewing? I have become a big fan of the cars I have seen of yours.

Thanks for the compliment. I'm currently working on three 70 Chevelles and another ZL-1 powered 69 Camaro. I hope to have the Camaro ready for AutoRama Thanksgiving weekend. If I can keep all the planets in alignment

Now now....

I"m afraid the Chevelles are a little out of your price range. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

Not much to tell at this point. The Cortez Silver Chevelle remains un-changed from the last time you saw it. Before taking delivery on it I found and purchased a 70 Astro Blue SS 114K original miles. POP, Black Buckets, A/C, Motor has never been out of the car, runs and drives very nicely, as original as the Cortez Silver Chevelle. So I'm not sure which one I'm going to keep long term and which one will be finding a new home. I love them both. Not often do you find two unmolested, documented SS Chevells this original. What to do what to do.

Very Nice car. I have a question . My 1970 l78 SS Nova came with a different style hubcap as I've seen on most L78 cars. They looked like Baby Moons with the Chevy bowtie on them ??? Two types ???

If I am not mistaken the "baby moons" you refer to started with '71 model Novas. If your car is a very late build '70 it may have come with them. I have a set on my 72 which was all original when I got it with 20K miles.

Are you the original owner?

I find it hard to believe that's real money being bid on the Nova, if I do say so myself.
