We took this car on trade about five years ago. It needed an engine overhaul. We had it professionally done. The mill is a 1970 date coded LS6 that is now .070 over. The heads have been worked and the cam is big. It has big tube headers, a Strip Dominator intake and a big Barry Grant carb. The trans is a built THM400 and the differential is a 12 bolt with 4:11 gears and a spool.
In addition, we installed a new high volume electric water pump and two high capacity cooling fans. Of course there is a fuel cell and a high dollar pumping system. The car is all set up and is legal to 10.50. There is a roll cage and a safety harness.
This car is very consistant at 11:30 in the quarter. It will dip into the 11:20's. I participated in the 2007 Hot Rod Drag Week and took home third place in the Big Block class.
The car is fully street legal. It went through a NSRA inspection before Drag Week and passed easily. It can be driven on the street without concern. We drove 1200 miles while on Drag Week. It performed flawlessly.
The interior is very stock appearing. The seats are correct black buckets and the rest sure looks nice and vintage correct. The radio and heater are deleted. Auxilliary gauges and 5 inch tachometer monitor the engine. A B+M Quicksilver shifter with reverse pattern controls the transmission. The back seat is original.

The body is super solid and shows no body work or bubbles. It has never been rusted. The paint is nice and shines well. The engine is nicely detailed and the underbody is attractive.
It is a pleasure to have a car with history. This car has been raced at Great Lakes Dragaway since the early 70's. It has been in Hot Rod magazine and on their website numerous times.
We decided to change up the look after discovering Grumpy Jenkins had a very similar '68 Nova. It took some searching and investment to find everything required, but it was worth the effort. This is a very nice tribute to Grumpy's Toy V.
You can be certain to get lots of looks, either on the street, at the strip or at a car show. There isn't another like it.
This is a great car that I am proud to own. We have great history together and it had great history before me. It now pays tribute to one of the legends of drag racing. Here is your chance to part of history with a wonderful Nova. Viewed: 658 times.
