Re: Spidey

YEah, when you have a Family, it is hard to have a Nova
that's why you get a Chevelle, more room ;D
My dad kept his Chevelle until I was about 3

Re: Spidey

"Starting a family." THAT sounds TERRORFIYING :o ;D. I could NEVER start a family..it would eat into my 'Hobby(ies..)-Money.' ~J/W-OO6.

A Chevelle's back seat isn't much bigger than a Nova's(unless you're comparing the '62-67 Nova with the '66 you have)....I've been in both(dad had a Chevelle, Mom had a Nova.....sorry, can't claim any FUN stuff).

Low-mid 10's sounds pretty good, Spidey........one question though.

Was this strictly a race-only car, or did it see street time as well?

The presence of tailpipes triggered that question.

Re: Spidey

Yep,those NMCA years were something else,LOTS of guy's around me were 'REALLY' into the whole 'Fastest-Street-Car' thing. I know of at least FOUR(4)guy's who went & re-financed their Homes just to get into the 'game'(which it WAS. A GAME >!...). I personally loved the 'Super-Street' class:--NO Wheelie-Bars. NO Wheel-Tubs. 9 & 10-Inch Tyres. MONDO Wheelies :o ;D!! It was a pretty wild time at the time,THEN...the "Money-Guy'z" got in on it. Duze'd in Dashboards/Transmission Tunnels,no Cowl Panels,Grill Plugs,ect. It went from 'Run Whatcha-Brung' to 'Build-It-To-WIN' praticaly overnight. Oh,well. ~J/W-OO6.
