************SOLD***********




I've decided to part with my '69 Nova I've been working on. I found this car as a legit barn find in northern California about an hour from my home. I knew as soon as I saw it, it was a perfect candidate for a build. It hasn't been on the road since 1983/84 and was very solid. It's a roller so no engine or trans. The car comes with almost a full set of trim and all of the glass except for the windshield. The window regulators are in excellent shape and fully functional. The glass is not cracked or delaminated. No front seat, but the rear bench is intact. The dash cluster is dirty but complete and has the controls for the heat/vents. The doors are extremely solid and have zero delfection in the hinges whatsoever. Other than shopping cart dents and door dings, the body is in original shape and currently in dark gray sealer after have been stripped with 120 grit. There is zero evidence or any noteworthy collision as the doors, hood, and trunk all retain crisp, original gaps. They all open and close perfectly. The hood gaps and latch are perfect. While there are many simple dents, the car will not require and further panel replacement and most importantly has NEVER had any bodywork or filler applied to it. What you see is exactly what is there. I have completed the following metal work:

New Goodmark full floor pans
New Goodmark rear tail lamp panel (original was cut for custom lamps-yeah)
New Goodmark right, lower quarter panel patch
New Goodmark upper dash panel at cowl
Left quarter patched over wheel arch (had two small bubbles)
-rt front inner fenderwell has typical battery damage. Needs replaced.

All panels have been etched primed at the seams and seam sealed with Kent 6000 products. The car is now completely rust free other than a small spot on the front edge of the hood and the rt fenderwell (batter acid damage). I had planned on a Goodmark hood to replace it. The trunk floor has some minimal discoloration and some minor pitting, but does not justify a pan replacement. The roof had some small spots where corrosion had begun, but will not require anything more than metal to metal to make prefect. The car is originally a V8/auto/10 bolt car. The 8.2 10 bolt is still there as well as the multi leafs. A clear CA title in my name is on the way from DMV. All fees are paid. The subframe in the car is in perfect shape. It doesn't have any scars from being towed or damaged. I don't think it's ever left the body. The car steers and rolls on 4 good rollers. It's the perfect builder to take from here. The dirty work is done. It's ready for body and paint!

$3900 with title and a pile of extra parts. Dave 916-300-09nine nine

Sacramento, CA

Bonus!- Check out that legit, vintage pro touring front wing! I'll throw it in!

As per the request of a couple guys- here's a couple shots of the underside. As you can see, the car is all original aside from the new floors.

TTT- I just added a mint OEM SS 396 Hood with the factory louvers to the car. It fits perfectly and looks wicked on it. I remove it from a legit L-78 car last weekend. $3500 for all and I'll throw in the POR-15 wash and sealant kit I bought for the car as well. Cheers!
