I've been surfing this forum all morning (working Saturdays isn't all bad) and thought, one more car forum couldn't hurt :D
I'm the proud owner of 5 rolling beauties. Two 66 Mustang coupes, a 99 Monte Carlo, 89 Safari, and a 66 Nova 4-door. Two of these ladies actually run ;)
Here's a shot of her the day my brother got the Nova on his 15th birthday. He bought her from a friend of his with all intentions of restoring her.
Fast forward a few years and he's done nothing but remove the fenders and lose bolts. Oh, and rack up a debt with his older brother, me. So, being the good brother I am I take the Nova as his payment on that debt since he's lost total interest. He didn't know I was tinkering on the car when he wasn't around :D
I got her running and drove her fenderless to my garage to begin. That was about a year and a half ago I think?
She's had some major surgery...
and some minor surgery...
and some upgrades...
...and here is where she sits at the moment.
My plan is to turn this car into a nice cruiser. I'll be keeping the inline 6 and dropping the car 2 inches on all four corners. I've planned to upgrade to dual exhaust, a 4 barrel carb, nice rims, and a modern sound system. I'm keeping her red but haven't picked the shade yet.
She's going to roll out of the garage in a week or so because I need the space for her stepsister, the blue 66 Mustang. She's got some rearend damage from the previous owner I need to take care of as well as some needed upgrades.
