wow what a difference

looks better now

got another cruiser ready

the weather has started to warm up some and spring is in the air. we've been spending a lot of time outside and have several house and yard projects going on besides getting the cars ready for the upcoming show season. i finally got the nova painted and ready to go. i think it looks great and is a good addition to our stable of cars. up next ?? who knows but i'd like to spend some more time on the 63 chevy. we'll see.

ready to go cruising

cruise season is coming

besides painting the 54 ford sedan i made a lot of updates to the rest of the car too. i now declare it ready for the coming show season. we're going to try to attend more shows this year to show off our car. i'm also working on a display to use at larger shows. and of course we'll be doing a lot more waxing and cleaning. i sent it out to be color sanded and buffed and the guy did a terrific job. he made a good paint job look even better.
i just finished with the first coat of primer on the nova and will be painting it in the next couple of weeks. i sure hope it turns out as good as the ford did. until next time

nice little car

1974 chevy nova

a couple of weeks ago i ran into a deal that i just couldn't pass up. this one is to be our everyday driver and occasional cruiser. it's a 1974 chevy nova that i got from an estate. the gentleman that owned it bought the car new and it only has 48k miles on it. it's a basic car with the six cylinder engine and manual transmission. it should be a gas saver for running to the grocery. i haven't started on it yet so that will have to wait till i get some more time.
