Dirk Olson Stick Shift 1969 Nova 396ci NHRA Stock Eliminator A/S Drag Racing Indy 2023 US Nationals

Dirk Olson's 1999 paintjob sure is holding up just fine as this beautiful Chevy Nova caught the eye of many a passer by at the 2023 US Nationals. Racers travel far and wide to come to Indy and show their stuff. It just so happens that after traveling hundreds of miles, Dirk was paired up against his next door neighbor. Let's see how it went down.

I'm 63, at 16 i bought my first car 1969 Nova SS with a hot 350 M-21 12 bolt 4.10. My dad RIP thought the engine had a big miss, i told him Crane thought otherwise.

Damn, Dirks Nova looks just like my ‘71 Nova. Same color, same motor.

Dirk is running some 1970-71 tail lights on his 69.

Interesting point, "Might NOT have next year" . Im to the point I ' EVEN CARE about costs or anything, I'm ALL OUT and ALL IN my automotive projects. I threw "care" Out the window this year and AIN'T looking back. Life is TOO short.
