Makes us all wish we either kept the cars we had or had one to play with. My uncle built a Camaro for my cousin in 78’, 327, head work, 650 DP, good internals, 5 spd when the Doug Nash was popular. North of 400 hp easy, 3.55 gear. It was vicious, my uncle Kenny could build a motor from nothing, some one else’s junk.He had two 73’ Ford wreckers both packing built 428’s, damn I miss those days,RIP uncle Kenny
Deborah those kinda guys are dying off more and more every day. Just those type of guys were talented more then they realized. Now everything is fricken LS or mail order crate motors!!! I m old school. Still running small blocks in all my hotrods!!
Adrian Tomlin so true, I watched him put a 283 together I swear that thing felt like a 350, roller rockers, the works, banging gears at 8,000 never hurt it.
I had a bone stock one owner ‘ 63 Chevy II SS 250 6 cylinder & power glide my dad bought me for my 1st car in 1973. Why did I ever sell it? He paid $300 & I got $500 to a guy they wanted to hot rod it. I bought a ‘67 International Scout for $800, sold for $1500 & bought my ‘72 El Camino SS with 350 & Turbo 350 for $2500 in 1975 but that’s another regret selling…
Super clean car obviously done right. My only personal preference would be custom width Vette Rally wheels - 14 inch narrowed in the front with 15 in widened in the rear. Had a couple Chevys and put Rallys on all of them I guess I just got hooked on the look :-)
Must be nice to give your "project" to someone and tell them call me when you're done. Couldn't really even tell much about the motor other than it " sounds tuff". Nice car though.
I wonder if they ever heard of getting to the point!!! We'd like to know about the car not his life history sorry to say that but I didn't click on that to hear about his family just a car!!
That engine is wicked and well tuned, dam!
Love the car done just right. Dash came out great
Looks really good with them rims nice nice
Great little car love nova SS
Don't see many around these days
This nova/Chevy II has to be cousins of my Camaro
Serious duration lift "
I'm just starting my retirement build with a 641 hp. pump gas N/A SBC stroker........no stereo.😁
It definitely sounds tough. Beautiful car!
I was lucky enough to drive it! Its a handful!!
YOU KNOW....IF YOU CRUSH THAT BOW-TIE POS JUST RIGHT...IT MAKES A WONDERFUL BOAT ANCHOR !!!!!
Big talker with a cat as your profile? haha
👍 B.I.L has a 66 with a 540, 400 auto, tubbed she's mean ! 😂👍
I like this guy,awesome ride.
NICELY DONE ✌😎

Gasratz Customs great video great car, thanks so very much
This old guy gets it, stock looking body, classic interior, tuff driveline and BIG motor! 🤘
83JTD only way to go, clean body no BS, HD drive line, unassuming ass kicker.
One of my top 5 favorites beautiful build I bet that many drinks beers with his car just staring at it I would
Those Cragars look perfect on such a tiny car
very nice nova love the stance and the wide tires out back, motor sounds killer. who's shop built it?
Damn thats a sweeeeeet ride. 💪💪💪
