My role in this whole thing came about when my Marketing teacher told me that his son was selling a Nice little hot rod. So I got his phone number and address and later that day I stopped by to see the car with a friend Ethan. I fell in love with the car when I first saw it, so Ethan and I had a deal to get the car. Ethan was going to pay 200 dollars , and I the remainding 500. The reason for this was Ethan wanted the Rear End because he owned a 1972 4 door Nova. But the deal fell through and I ended up buying it my self. I paid 750 for the NOVA, but Tim paid for the tow truck. The Nova finally got to my house, and I kinda had a problem. Mainly because I owned a 1962 AMC Rambler Classic Deluxe, Well anyone who knows what kind of car this is knows that it was a real Piece of Crap. I mean I really liked the car, Thats why I bought it, but damn what a stupid decision!! So I had to get rid of the Rambler so I called a AMC buff that I knew, he brought his flatbed trailer out and we loaded it up. But I only got 10 bucks for it!! PRETTY CRAZY HUH!!
Check out the pic of the Rambler.
But if I didnt take the 10 bucks I would have probably had to pay someone take it, so I accepted. And he towed the car off. But I knew that the NOVA would fill the gap in my heart that the Rambler took. The Nova was in rough condition,( like i said, the guy before me really trashed the Nova), There was surface rust all over the
car. So that had to be wet-sanded off, WHICH SUCKED!! But it actually turned out pretty good, I was really suprised what some elbow grease and some wax will do. But the Nova still needs to be painted.
The car came with alot of free stuff too, The car is equiped with a posi-track 10bolt rearend, I also got the mainifold that was on the blown-up engine in the car.( AN EDELBROCK PERFORMER RPM). And it also came with a Carter Carberator.
The interior of the Nova was the beautiful part. Its pretty much complete, with nice carpet and the stock shifter (that had to be removed because the cable was unrepairable), And the seats only had ONE cigarette burn!!
