Hi all my name is Bill, I joined the site last year finally got to doing this. I have a 67 Nova I have had since 87. I have a wife and 2 kids a daughter 10 and a son 6. I don't post much but like coming here for tech, never know what you might learn. The pic is ripped from a video, a little blurry, but it's all I have that is not copyrighted. The Nova has a 355 flat tappet cam, flattops and Dart2 sportsmans and a Pro-systems carb, also a Th400 w 8" converter, 9"rear w/ 4.56's. Best pass of 11.27@120.28 and theres more left. It's a fun street car.

Bill,

If you see Supernova hanging around your ride make sure he doesn't have a SawzAll or cutoff wheel in his hands... :mrgreen:

Yeah Bruce that pic is from Atco...the Grove is closer for me but Atco has more stuff going on, plus it closer to sea level.

Thanks for the kind words, the car has been a labor of love and after 24 years I'm still not tired of it...maybe that's wierd

I'll watch out for guys with power tools, thanks for the warning!!!!
