BBBenny's nova

[Salvatore]

The Mayor of Iowa just emailed me for my thoughts on what we should do with BBBennys L78 fathom green nova thats getting ready for final assembly. Well, we put our heads together and came up with a nice list of day-2 items to be installed. I told Benny that one trailer queen (his COPO) is enough so get with the program. Any ideas to wake this fathom green L78 nova up in day-2 is appreciated. Just give us your ideas! Come on Don White (lets do those headlites), Frank Arone, Darren, Frank Magallon, Kenny P. etc! Thanks. From BBBennys Business Agent

Chrome Cragars, yellow Lakewoods, call Joe for a set of gauges, Mr gasket rear end cover, little round red running lights on the back corners of the lakewoods....

How about some nice Ansen Slots, white lines in the front with M/T black walls in the rear. Powder coated white headers with a Torqer II intake. Couple of Lakewood Yellow Traction Bars, Finned rear cover and Grant wood wheel. Cannot forget a nice set of complete Sun Green line gauges to match the green paint.

That right Bud, Only time it wasn't like that is when the showroom door opened. Then he drove it down the street to the speed shop! I can see you guys are going to keep BBBenny straight! Its tough though.

Hey Darren, Benny told me he is willing to use some of my vintage decals on his quarter windows just like 1970. Says he wants to make this nova look like a legit B/Stocker in its racing days. I know Pete is building him a semi killer motor so look out the Lehighton Flash is coming 4 speed and all!
