About “Cuda”
The car was originally my dad's. He gave it to me when I started to show interest in it. I got the car here in Nevada from Ohio in May 2007. Much work needed as the car has been sitting for 10 years. But the werkins have begun. :)
About “Nova”
History:
-------------------------------
-Aquired: late 2002. Built from two separate cars (purchased together.. '70 and a '72).
-From: The cars were actually out of a junkyard that closed down and they were liquidating what was left.
-In The Works: After doing a quick engine pull to lay in some fresh paint, clean up some electrical, and do a hefty cam swap in 2006, I finally finished bodywork and paint in early 2008. Next up is finalizing interior while continuing to upgrade to high performance
