Man that looks good! Are they Kevins legs peeking out from under that Deuce, Schoneys right hand man? Again, IMO us nova guys have to thank the Schoenthaler's, The SCW guys and associates and a few others for really shedding some lite on the little somewhat overlooked musclecar!

The boys are definitely in the zone, Sam, and their awesome results speak for themselves!! It's comforting knowing that a dude, (democrat and all) that bought one of these new and still has it, is restoring my Deuce !

Naw, that's Joe. Probably sleeping under there.
We were planning on putting headers on the car. Sam had wanted white like the Roofs had. So we sent a set to Jet Hot to have coated arctic white. Unfortunatly the white looks very thin, and Jet hot insists that's the way they are. (not happy) So Sam made the management decision to put on the manifolds for now, with the intent, down the road, to get a better coating on the headers, and install them.
I've always had good results from jet hot, but I could have bombed these with VHT, and had them look better.
