I'd LOVE to see a 68-72 nova from you guys... standard, and SS versions, possibly yenkos and COPOs too... I'd REALLY love to see a Death Proof version... with skull and bolts on the hood!!

I would also like to see a 74 GTO (and stock Ventura) and a 74 Nova (and while they're at it, how about the Omega and Apollo too!).

Any year Nova? What about the 85 to 89? That was the UGLIEST Nova I have ever seen. You know the Toyota body style. But I am with the Rest, Late 60's to early 70's would be nice

Though JL did 69-72 Novas, they were not completely accurate, the rear wheel openings were way off. They never actually did a 68, which as the owner of a 68 SS since 1977, I wonder why. The 68 SS had lower production numbers than the 69-72s and was the first year for the body style, 350 V8, 396 V8 in a Nova, last year for no headrests as standard, last year for dash mounted ignition switch, and last year for the Chevy II designation.

68 SS Nova, my first car! While drag racing in a paved alley, someone thought it would be funny to push a large empty metal dumpster out in our path.

Hit that dumpster at about 50 mph. Was the loudest noise I've ever heard. That dumpster rolled for half a block, banging into parked cars along the way.

Seemed like a minor crash from inside the car (probably because the dumpster was empty). Nova was totaled.

These days I have trouble getting that out of my mind. I tried to fill the void with a 70 SS, but I still to this day (25 years later) miss that 68. :cry:
