I remember going to a little car show on 71, maybe Strongsville K-Mart, about 20 years ago. There was a nice, original black paint Copo Camaro, with white interior, 4sp-30k miles. Tried to buy it, offered what he thought it was worth. He thought about, but decided he wasn't ready. Nice car.

That was Brunswick K-Mart. A lot of us were “regulars” back then. I know the car very well, it’s moved on. This is still one of the largest, and oldest weekly get togethers. Once billed as the largest unorganized car show in the world. It’s roots go back to the 1960-70’s Manners Big-Boy and even Hot-Rod magazine.

You guys are making me jealous. I grew up in Winnipeg where there's a huge car culture and street scene still to this very day. I moved west at 25 and found a hot Saturday night scene here in Calgary but that died off 20 years ago followed by the local track closing up 7 years ago.
Car shows are all that's left here and they bore me with so many late model cars showing up over that of the real muscle cars that are stowed away in urban garages. I wish there was still a street scene here. Smaller demographics over your major US cities and shorter seasons makes it a tough go. Ocean City, Pavillions, Street Machine Nationals, MCACN, SCR, Woodward, Pigeon Forge ETC ETC. For that I am truly envious.

Big thank you to Mike Angelo for the complimentary Ed Stinn decals which arrived Friday. They'll be put to good use on this little Nova when I get it cleaned up. Been taking stock of what's needed to put some things back to stock. Looking for a clean engine bay harness, cowl panel and wiper arms, and it will need a complete inner heater core as that was removed for weight back in the day. Maybe once I add that and the new motor with those heavy orange headers, it'll add enough weight to drop the front end some. The Crossram will also help add some weight. Here's another picture I found with Cragar's on it. Should be picking up the Cragar"s from Sam next week.
(Thanks very much Mike. And you too Rich for the offer of the docs. Two great guys from this site) This was another shot Gary Cunningham took of the car when he had it.

While waiting for some other parts to arrive for the Nova, I did receive a cool little care package from Rich (Mr. Chevy) earlier today. A complete set of dealership issued docs from Ed Stinn Chevrolet which will stay with the car now.
Thank you for all of this Rich.

By chance...would anyone have any pictures of a Lakewood roll bar (Mounting Kit #54050) to fit 68-72 Nova. I have feet for a 69 Camaro #54010 and I'm wondering what difference there is between the 2 as they are likely similar? Hoping I can modify the mounts but curious as to how different the originals are to each other?
Best case scenario would be to find the mounting kit if anyone has one stashed away?
