Do you plan on making the long trip to Stanton in the future ?

 

i do plan on making the trip to Stanton,but it will probably be next year.I am hoping to make the virginia race this year;but i still need to finishes up the clip;get the motor dyno tuned in .my motor guy has placed a great deal of time invested in the motor;he is a perfectionist and his motor speak for their self locally.trying to get everything ready for the dyno in the next few weeks.396,4 speed muncie and 12 bolt 4;10 gear to boot.chris

Chris,

Is that the same Nova that I think you had at Commerce a few years back. I seem to recall it is a different one and you had this one in process...???

 

That is a beautiful car. I look forward to seeing it in person.

 

Your are right dave,this is my other nova;the one i had at the commerce race was grotto blue in color with dog dish hubcaps.thisred nova ss ;i have owned since the age of 16.It has nos quarters and fender and all original metal in the car;.should run pretty good.Chris

 

Looks great Chris,

I have a wedding the VMP weekend.But, if they have the deal in Gainesville again I should be there. Love to see it in person.

 

:TU: Excellent job Chris. Looks "phonome"
Look forward to seeing it sometime.

guys ,subframe is completed on the nova.and motor is ready for the dyno.will be scheduling my dyno tuning session in a few weeks.i will try and post some pictures this weekend.chris

 

I will post some pictures this week of the progress of the 68 nova 396/375 hp purestocker this week.Been alittle slower than I thought;but the motor is all ready for the dyno.probably a good idea to schedule it for the first week of the new year.removed the old front clip / stripped the firewall ,and primed it today.the new front clip is painted semi-gloss black with a sikkens paint product , spindle, tierods etc.all painted and ready to roll under the car.I have a rottissere ,so at this point,it would make since to remove gas tank and rearend and place the car on the rottissere; then i can sand underneath and paint the bottom side and then start putting the car back together;in a few weeks.Chris Teed

i was able to take some pictures of the progress today;got to find the plug so i can load the pictures .Dyno time set for 1st week in january.chris

 

You're making me homesick- my first car was a '69 with a 250 and 4w drums- r@ped a chevelle for the spindles etc. and put on the discs- built the 250 up with a hot cam,headers,dual webers, etc. Mean lil Bast@@@- I miss it- my wife hated it!

 

Here are updated pictures of the pure stocker nova ss.Chris
