Admit it, hen you see a killer bowtie muscle car with a mountain motor up front and giant rear tires out back, our adrenaline starts pumping, nd maybe your pupils dilate a little. The third generation of Chevrolet Nova has long been a favorite of drag racers, eekend mechanics, nd hot-rodders. Just when you think you've seen the best one ever, long comes a car like this, hat totally blows all the rest away. One of the coolest things about the classic car hobby is the amount of passion and creativity enthusiasts put into their builds. There's no better way to make a great looking Bowtie even more appealing, han to smooth it out and cover it in a stunning, eep, ich paint job like this one. Take another look at the pictures and look at the attention to detail, nd panel fitment; the level of professional, igh-dollar, uality work here is really setting the bar for pro-street builds. Make no mistake, his is not a "covered up rust bucket" like how most project cars begin... no, his car began as a solid, eal-deal Nova which is why you will not find any rust pits anywhere on this car. Even open up the trunk and look inside the rear quarter panels... those have even been base-coated and cleared! It's simply amazing how well this car was put together.
