Thought some of you might be interested in this 62 nova convertable were finishing for a customer. Not high tech , but pretty cool. Originally a 6 cyl, powerglide, he wanted to give it a retro 60's look with a few modern conveniences. We refinished the underneath, installed subframe connectors, 3.73 12 bolt, new suspension with Global West Del-alum bushings, strut rods ect. 67 power front disc brakes, and 67 power steering. We found a 283 nova block and did a mild build with Edelbrock performer cam and 9.5 c/r. with 461x heads topped it off with a restored 61 vette dual 4 setup and disguised a full MSD ignition system. We also had a custom gauge cluster made (140 speedo and 8k tach). Its also got a 200r4 trans as well. No overall shots until we figure out a wheel and tire combo! Suggestions welcome!

Nice. I'm going to have to come by and check out your shop if that's cool with you. Concord is right down the road from you. Nice project especially going with the old school style.

Steelies (or aluminum wheels disguised as steel to keep the theme going) w/some poverty/dog-dish caps.
