Default 78 Nova

Just saying hello and introducing myself.I live just west of Atlanta and I've been browsing the forums for awhile for info and the like and with an upcoming engine overhaul thought I may have to make some post. My current ride is a Black and Silver 78 Chevy Nova that my dad helped me restore with a 350 Thrown together to run with the stock 2:73 gear. Did the paint and bodywork and am now learning how to do interior (Some tricky stuff). Also have plans in the next few weeks our so to install a new set of heads, cam, intake, carb and 3:73 gear set.

Nice ride, I've always liked Novas, especially the '68 - '74 era.
Any more pics?

Yeah I have a few more pics. This pic was taken from car cruise we had one night and I got mixed up with all the mustangs in the previous pic after getting pulled over for a "Weird Tag Sticker". But their is a 98 camaro in the upper left corner of the pic. Here are some more pics.





I'll have a few more up Monday when I am back at my house.
