********Update info
My uncle bought the Nova from my dad, after we dropped in a 383 that regularly pushes the car through the traps in the high 12s. Working on getting some pictures of the Nova's new motor.

This is the site for my uncle's 1974 Nova drag car.

Here's what the car looked like when we picked it up. As you can see, it was pretty beat up. It had been sitting outside for several years.

To start off with, it had a busted out passenger window, and there was rust in all the fender wells, and a small amount of rust on the skirts. The left rear quarter panel was caved in heavily. Had a non-running six cylinder engine and was lacking in a transmission.

On to the fixing up of the car. I would say resoration, but it isnt going to be anything like it was originally.

Awesome Project. Great Job documenting everything. I like your son's F body too. Good luck with everything, it looks really clean and well done. Check out my GM wagon if you get a chance. Peace
