Today I start working on my 1973 Chevy Nova that was previously in a fire. Nobody panic!! I know it's not a Ford truck! It's going to be okay though. :)

Of course you can keep quite a lot of it intact like that... Scrape off as much of the loose flaky shit as you can then use a rust convertor sparingly on the exposed metal parts, not covering any real leftover paint or bubbles, and then matte clear the whole thing. It will need occasional touch ups, but eventually you will get on top of it.

When seeing it roll out of the garage and sounding like it did, it reminded me of the movie car Christine... Because she was red and practically on fire once, she rolled back out of the ruins giving it that back to life feel again. This car is gonna be a fun driver for ya... I once drove a 74-75 NOVA 350 four door.

I was going to post this, you beat me to it. Ford IAC valves are voice coil actuators and are famous for sticking. The cranking air-fuel ratio probably is calibrated assuming the IAC is in the ‘cranking’ position, it might be a tad lean if you’re starting it with the gas pedal and a stuck IAC. It’s been a while since I calibrated Ford EEC-IVs but I recall something about that.

Need to check out Mustie1 videos of Crusty and what he did to preserve the "paint" on that. That's be sweet to keep as much as is paint wise.

Burned, pitch black charcoal-colored metal, isn't exactly paint.

I agree. Looks good. But charcoal and ash aren't exactly patina. I suppose it's debatable. Funny!! I would be tempted to sand/paint unless irreparably heat-warped.

This is so cool. My dad used to have a 74 nova that he drag raced back in the day. He bought it new in 74 for surprisingly 400 dollars and sold it in the early/ mid 80s for 2’500 dollars. He regretted that decision. It was blue with back stripes

Inline 6's last forever! I put almost 300,000 miles on my 1972 Chevy C-10 engine with 3 on the "tree" before the doors literally rusted off and fell on the tops of my feet. Best truck I ever owned (except the 1966 Dodge D-200 crew cab with the big truck slant six with four on the floor surplus Air Force that went over 300,000 and more). Inline 6's ruled back in the day. You could go 130 mph in a four door Chevy Nova for miles from downtown Rochester, NY to Exit 45 on I-90 in about 15 minutes on I-390. I did put on high speed tires so I wouldn't wreck, but that old '72 Nova flew. It wasn't a quick car, but it was fast. Do a good job on the Nova Mook, then take it out on an interstate as see if it will fly.

Not gonna lie, that was one _Solid_ Mouse. I wonder where his nemesis Solid Snake is, what kind of conspiracies and -extermination- _assassination_ missions he's been on. Wait... if there is Solid Mouse, where is Liquid Mouse? I'd imagine that Liquid perished in the Great Nova Blaze not too many ages ago, so if you see Solidus Mouse in the car when cleaning, its probably partially Liquid and partially Solid, a good combination of evasion and defensive stats. _Yes, clearly my logic is entirely without any error whatsoever._

It would be super cool to drop a 350 down in it and preserve the pipes, and the overall look of the car. Obviously you've got to protect the bare metal and get rid of paint that's come up but it would be amazing to turn it into a patina.
