O btw sence this is basically a picture thread.....Here is the 23 yo kid(Lou you met him when I picked up my motor, you would get along with his dad, he built twin turbo big blocks for boat, for over 15 years) This is his Nova and he litterally cut the car in half from the driver seat back, and rebuilt it. Frame and all, tubed it, built a fuel cell, and installed a 4 link. He has a full bullet prof 12 bolt w/posi, and a 454 big block with nascar heads on there. The heads are 1 of a set of 2, he says there worth more then his whole motor.
This is were I got my free welding classes
All I did was lend my time, which I got plunty of. Any time he went to work on the car, he called me over to help. I was basically a slave but like I care, im fine with that. The TIG and MIG experience I got for free is priceless. I'm ordering a MIG myself here soon, and will start doing my own pipes
This guys name is Tommy, and he can build anything N/A, and loves chevies. Here are 2 pictures, 1 of the rear and undercarage and 1 of the car itself.
Here you can see the 315's, 4 link, coil over conversion, fuel cell(made by me and tommy). He did most of the work, and I watched/helped/learned a CRAP load!
Look at those 315's, 17X10's haha he's ca-razy. His stock tires in the front look like skinnies compared to his rears.
All I can say about this car, and one of my best buddies(4 life), and going 162mph in light rain @ 6300 in 4th. with no seat belts, the windows down, and on a solid bench seat is FAWKING SCARY OKAY! That was the fastest he's been and same with me, Im glad we did it together because right after, we both agreed it wasn't necessary, and it will be quite awhile before we or he alone goes that fast again on the freeway. Sure was interesting to try n stick ur head out the window @ 150 haha. Hope you enjoy the few pics I have of this amazing sleeper!
