This is my 74 Chevy Nova.
It was my first car, I got it 7 years ago, when i was 13. Ive been working on it ever since.
I brought it to vocational school with me so i could do the body work and this is how she came out. 
Before I got it, she went through Maaco 3 times and the paint was literally falling off from no adhesion. So, i bought a gallon of paint stripper and went to town. Stripped her all down to bare metal and started over. 
Then, when i got it home from school, i decided i wanted more power, even though the body work wasnt near done. So, i found a 396 from a '68 chevelle and started ripping the good old 350 out.
This is her when i was nearing the end of the body work and the engine was in and running.
I finally finished the body work, and decided on a color to paint it.
Not bad for my first paint job, wouldnt ya say?
next up is the interior, ive been meaning to do it for a long time now, but i lack the cash, and id like to find the original bucket seats to put back in.
