I like Novas.

I had a 78 Nova that I purchased new, still wished I had it. It was a fun car and I got a few speeding tickets with it since it was also a 4 speed car. Nice cars.

It runs on pump gas. No problem. It's a little crisp with the gears. That is, if your shifts aren't perfect, you'll know it. It's fairly easy to compression lock the back tires if you let off the gas too fast. When you hammer it, hold on. It's TONS of fun to drive. Yeah, I had it on CL for a while.

This really is the car, just before I painted it and made the hood for it.

I think that everyone of us had that worn out POS at one time. I had too many !
