The Church Boys Racing parts for the Nova are coming soon, so I started the front end tear down, and clean up so that the new parts don't look out of place.
We are working on a 1964 Nova also. We took that entire front tub off and sent out to get sandblasted and powdered coated. With that front off made it easier to grind off those rivets that hold those strut rods as they will need to go to put the Church Boys lower control arms on. No spring compressor you are a brave man! Good Luck with the Nova!
Thanks for the tips! I’ve thought about taking it completely off too, but I’m a one man show most of the time, my dad isn’t over too often to have the help I probably need. Right now the goal is to knock off all the surface rust and get a decent coat of paint on it before assembling the front end again.
