Default New Speed shop Northern Illinois area

Not sure where to post this, my cousin just opened his own speed shop. He does all type of fabricating and chassis work, exhaust work, refills nitrous, roll bars. You name it he will do it. Here are a few pics. Like I said was not sure where to post this, but if you are looking to build a car or redue a car you own give him a call. His name is Nick 1-815-875-2211 Here are some pics and a link to his awesome green chevelle.

Rob has been sending me pictures of the work being done on his Nova. The attention to the little things makes all the difference and it is being done on this Nova. This guy does neat work and anybody that can put together a 9 second stock looking Chevelle has to know what they are doing.

Thanks Mark, he has since got the chevelle to run 8.90's on pump gas, and can drive it to the track and home with no problems. Just tell him how fast you want to go and he will make it happen. The picture with the motor in it is my car, thats just a mock up motor. We are waiting for the motor still.

Here is the wheelie bar he made also

Just a big block with square port heads being used as a mock up. Rob it looks like you are running 2-1/8 tube headers with power steering. I always thought there would be clearance issues. It looks like you are running solid motor mounts. Is this the secret to making everything fit? This Nova is going to be so neat when it hits the streets.
