Damn. thats alot of money you have to spend.

 

i havent took pics.. i will take pics when im start hit on Project.. and Im not rendy to buy all parts till I sold My VW passat and other Nova so i can have money!

 

 

I just wanted pics of the new nova shell, i understand that you haven't bought the parts.

And you won't die drag racing the nova, it would be quite a challenge to die driving a slower drag car.
