Default 1968 COPO Nova found

we just aquired car #28 matador red 68 Dick Harrell Nova. Car has been parked inside since 1981. It has been a racecar since new and has never been cut up. Has 427 but as with most of these racecars I dont believe its the correct motor. This car deserves to be restored, anyone interested? The one that sold at bJ in 2006 touted the only red one known? Not sure if that was just BS..... Heres another located in Colorado

We would certainly be interested in doing the restoration if you are asking specifically for that. Otherwise I would certainly work with the buyer if you are selling it.

Wasn't there a thread on here before from the guy who had the car before you bought it? Or maybe on stevesnovasite? I remember a guy posting that he thought it was a Gibb/Harrell car. There were a few inquiries, and I expect PMs, then the conversation just went away. Must have been due to the sale?
