In the spring of '69 one of my co-workers in the service dept of Schukei Chevrolet was all set to run down to KC to pick up a Harrell 427 Nova. Then he talked to his insurance agent....

Looking forward to more of these great stories!! I've always said that a big block Nova was best the car for laying endless pavement stripes.
