Please contact us for more information. Presented is an original owner 1970 Nova “Crate Car” Now this is AMERICAN MUSCLE! “NICKEY” Chicago has stated that this original owner car is probably the only privately purchased, built and raced AHRA Coca Cola Calvacade of Stars Super Stock still in existence. The buyer will receive all original documentation, 8mm films, DVD including the original receipt from Mr Norms Grand Spaulding Dodge for the rear end assembly. Additionally letters of documentation from employees of Witte Chevrolet confirming the cars arrival will be yours. The cars had to be stock appearing with no alterations and run 11:00 seconds or faster, ooohboy, at 2800 lbs minimum. The car took 5 months to finish, got an SOS title—Secretary of State and VIN—because we needed to finance the finish—ran outa moola—should have seen the Bank Officers face when I handed him the title with a SOS VIN number and stating “homemade”—oh well he got over it and we got the loan. Document of request form is included. The car was originally equipped with: Performance Auto Parts 440 cu in Chevy with Crane cam and Stock HIPO Rockers but that was about it except for stock L-88 cam, crank, rods and pistons—Dana rear with 5:13 gears. Crash box Muncie M-21 with every other syncro tooth machined out---and I don’t want to hear about M-22s they’re junk ya can’t power shift em at 8400 RPM! Unless you’re a Gorilla---threw the traps at 8800 Sun \super tach and gauges Ignition was Mallory Hemi Coil with single point Chevy NO FRONT BRAKES—just like a real race car Plexiglas all around No interior—note we’ve added a new dash to the resto. Car was chassied and now restored with junk yard parts as best could be done. Cragars up front and American Torquers with 9:50 – 15” hides on the rear originally M/H but M/T’s now. Original paint by C Sharp was done in my dad’s garage with square pattern lacing all around—restored as close as possible Lettering was originally done in silver leaf by the “DUKE”—receipt included. We couldn’t find him so his friend JIVE did all the resto lettering. One Saturday we were getting the car ready for that night’s booking—the US 30 commercial came on during Larry’s program---“see 32 pro-super stockers battled it out! Tykies Toy, da Truder, Sharp and Urso and –what else—Nova on Sunday!!!!! Well when Mr Luzack came back on he wondered if any one knew the idiot who had the brain of a rubber tire iron naming his car NOVA ON SUNDAY. So I guess it fits. We ran for 3 years in the lanes with such funny car greats as Austin Coil---Chi Town, Don Schoemaker—Star Dust, Ed McCullough, Don the Snake and many others—just shootin the stuff with them not knowing these guys would become legends years later. Best ET was against the Sundance Camaro—which we beat--- with a 9:95 at 157 MPH at Oswego in 1971. Also remember these were the days before track prep and stickem—only towards the end of 1970 were we doing water in the (bleach) bottle—in 4th gear. Car is sold on Bill of Sale
