    The Nova looks clean but I would change a few things if it were mine. The stock shaped console should be in the car. You can have like 6 new style digital gauges in that thing.
    It needs rest bucket seats at least.
    I would shorten up the engine cover, it looks too long.
    And the last touch is just for me. Have to put 1973 Pontiac Ventura style tail lights in these 3rd gen Nova's. Those tail lights look so clean to me. = =. 👍🏽

      Customer’s cars. The hardtop Nova has a ton of time and money into it. With the top builders, you almost have to go in with a blank check and no deadline. That’s how Foose does it. You’re looking at $300k+ for a custom build depending on the car’s condition and parts + the initial price of the car. The CF1 Roadsters are brand new carbon fiber bodies and are priced approximately $300-400k, so they look like a good deal. Check out my other Kindig-It videos if you haven’t already:

    I'm very underwhelmed by the choice of wheels on both of these cars. I just feel like flat faced wheels belong on front wheel drive cars. These front wheels on both of these cars are just way too conservative for me. I need to have a lip on my wheels. The rear lips obviously should be larger than the fronts... But, jeez... These wheels are virtually void of them altogether. Other than that, I love everything else about them. I will say though that I like Joe Rogan's nova that pure vision built for him. That one is really one I would have in my own garage if I could

    • @RobertLewisHUB
      @RobertLewisHUB  Год назад

      I think the wheels are too modern and don’t fit the look of either the Camaro or Nova. Luckily, wheels are bolt on parts. The 5 spoke wheels on Joe Rogan’s Nova look awesome - clean design and classic, but still modern.

      The 73 Nova SS I bought with no engine. I broke the 4spd, so I rebuilt a 350 with a huge street cam. Rhodes lifters, the ones that clicked at idle. They bled down at low rpm, made the engine idle like stock. Then when got on it, the oil pressure went up and that engine would come to life. 3,500 stall converter. Painted it white with black along the bottom 1/4 of the car. Sold both of them to friends before I moved to AZ.
