INTRODUCTION: Only 350 miles on an open checkbook build. It has
everything from a 700 HP NASCAR engine and custom chassis to a
first class leather interior and all the comfort features.
EXTERIOR: Phenomenal fit and finish! The body is straight as a
rifle barrel from rockers to roof! It was cleaned up with flush
door handles, shaved rain gutters, a flush mount fuel door and the
emblems, antenna and moldings were shaved. The composite Manta
scooped hood has racing locks. The wine metallic paint looks like a
piece of hard candy, its polished smooth and glossy. There's some
high end painted graphics on each side that's smooth to the touch.
All of the stainless is polished like chrome. All of the chrome is
replaced including the window frames. All new smoked glass and
weatherstrips. Intro wheels wrapped in Pilot Sport performance
tires.
INTERIOR: First class in here! My words won't do it justice but
I'll try, look at the pictures. Every square inch was
professionally customized. There's so much sculpturing and 1 of a
kind hand fabrication. It's upholstered in hand stitched, glove
soft Italian leather. There are 4 bucket seats and a very nice
center console. Custom sculpted side panels and rear shelf. The
dash panel has a carbon fiber effect and premium billet Vintage Air
controls and vents. A custom lower panel was made for a very
finished look. The custom gauges show just 339 miles on the
odometer. It uses an electric e-brake and a keyless ignition! You
hit unlock on the key fob then push the starter button to fire up
that NASCAR motor. The console is home to luxury items like power
windows, a 12 volt receptacle, JBL Bluetooth stereo and cup
holders. Too high class for you? That manual 6-speed shifter will
remind you that you're in a wolf with sheep's clothes! You won't
see the Fat Mat sound deadener or the amps and speakers but you
will appreciate that they are there. The leather wrapped Billet
Specialties wheel is on a polished column.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Hendricks Motorsports SB2 NASCAR engine. It's a
410 cubic inch small block making 700hp and capable of revving to
7,500 rpm! It has aluminum heads, polished Edelbrock Victor 2962

chrome power steering. The custom made dual snorkel cold air intake
with Spectre filters matches the valve covers. It runs cool with an
aluminum radiator and electric fans. All of the fittings and hoses
are premium. Clean engine bay was smoothed out and painted slick,
the wires and hoses are tucked away. Ring Brothers Air Frame billet
hinges make opening the hood smooth as skippy. The support bars
from the firewall to the frame are part of the TCI chassis.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It is completely boxed and upholstered, even
under the trunk lid. The battery is relocated behind the panel, it
has a discount switch and remote terminals under the car.

looking under this car.
CONCLUSION: This car reminds me of James Bond- Very classy,
sophisticated and charasmatic on the out side but a fierce warrior
on the inside! This Nova can cruise you in the comfort of a
european luxury car, run with the boys in NASCAR and take home the
trophy at any given show. Why pay so much more and wait for one to
be ebuilt, this one is ready right now!
