About 10 years ago, my '75 Nova (No Va) lived up to it's name in Spanish. Yep, it became a '75 "No Go"!!

BTW:CrazyCarKid The Nova is a '75

I really like your truck!

I had a 66 swb fleet side with a 283 three by the knee. Had a lot of fun in it as well.

Here is something funny, while farting around with the Nova after work I find the factory MPG rating on the inside of the drivers door (24 city 28 highway)!
So if I can boost the highway mileage a bit it will be equal to an HHR.
