I just had the opportunity to see this bad boy in person as the BF Goodrich tour was here today and I have to say this was one of his best efforts yet. This is a VERY cool car....very clean...

Thumbs up

Thanks everyone for the comments. Its one of those cars that you have to sit and really look at in order to fully understand. Troy and his crew did a great job on it. Where there other cars at this bfg tour??

I haven't visited this section in a while, and this is my first time seeing the pics...so please, bear with me while I clean off my keyboard.

Back...that Nova is the baddest I've ever seen. Point blank, period. That's a hell of a job by one of my favorite builders.

They only brought one trailer so there was this one and an old 30's Ford. I'll try and get some other pics to post up.

Wow, if it wasn't for the visible rivets, I'd say that was a factory interior; that's not putting it down, rather it's a LOT cleaner than some factory interiors. It's not busy, and purposeful; the beauty indeed, is in the minimalist look that just looks as clean as if it was produced in a factory so I hope they take that as a compliment.

I love how the rear tires are tucked way up in fender. Knowing how wide the tires are under there makes it even more impressive.

Well said. The interior was intended not to be really gaudy. Its supposed to look like an all business interior. Rollcage, 4 point seatbelts (front and rear), looks like a manual (its a 4l80e). But it actually has a lot of technology in it. Dvd head unit, racepak, tons of relays for interior and exterior lighting, doors, etc etc

The attention to detail on your dad's Nova is ridiculous (I've learned to expect that from that little shop)! Congrats on the successful completion and thanks for sharing the build.
