so i decided to get another car.... in a few months hopfully by the end of the summer.... and IM havign a hard decision between a 63 nova or a 72..... i like the 72 for looks and the 63 for the weight and how light it is... but i dont know. i don t want to run 7s or anythign just a fun streeet/strip 10-11 second car... any input i know its my car in teh end but any feedback problems with one and not the other... Also i dont know if this is right but would i have to tubb the 63 nova if i start gettgin down into 10's?.... any feedback would be great. im just excited ot have a new project in the works...

First and second gen Novas don't have very good front suspensions. I love the 66-67 body style but if you want to make it a racer I would go with the 68-72. They use the same front sub frame as a 67-69 Camaro and Firebird, and have more room in the engine compartment in case you want to go BB.
