If that’s the car I think it is, it’s without doubt one of the craziest sleepers in the world. It was in hot rod magazine like 10 years ago, with all kinds of slick shit. The cage was built to sit as close to the roof and pillars as possible to stay out of view, rear seat was retained to hide the mini tub, carpet hiding the fact that the front and rear subframes were tied together, and the LS2 under the hood has twin Rotrex superchargers with the air to water intercoolers tucked in each fender, along with a dual fuel setup; one cell/pumps/injector set for regular 93, and a completely separate set of cell/pumps/injectors filled with CAM2 race fuel. This thing is nuts and put down 1100 at the time. Favorite nova ever.

If I had been at the light and was thinking about racing that piece of junk, as soon as I saw that front end shift I would have been like, “NOPE!”

I had a friend of mine that I grew up with. When we became teenagers in the early 90s he got a 69' Nova I believe it was. This dude was one of these guys born with a socket rench in his hand. He came from a long line of mechanics and he was an excellent mechanic himself at a young age. He fixed up that Nova with a roll cage inside of it and nitrous canister and a ticked out 350 small block, painted it candy apple red with a black racing stipe going down the hood, the trunk and the roof. It was gorgeous! He didn't have it long before he wrecked it while hot dogging it one night and that roll cage probably saved his life. Many years later, he was married and with kids. I went to visit him one day, hadn't seen him in years! He had a model of a 69' Nova that looked identical to his old Nova on the fireplace mantle, it was like a shrine to that car. Unfortunately, that friend of mine, my best friend growing up, is passed on now. RIP Chris Baily, you were a good man, sir! A real man!

Pretty interesting car. This car was featured in an episode of BIG MUSCLE. 1,200 hp and was on the Hotrod Power Tour. I'd drive it proudly. :)

Funny you should say that. Whenever I hear the Boss singing "Racing in the Street", this is exactly the kind of car I picture.........

Straight up bad ass. Didn't smoke anyone out witha burnout. Spun them tires subtly enough to get them a little hot. As soon as he kicked up the revs and held the rpms I knew this dude and the car were boss.

I knew a kid in school back in the 80’s that had a little red S10 p/u didn’t look like much but he had a 350 all built up in it and that little truck would Go! Lol

I worked with a guy around that same time that had one of those Pontiac Vegas (I think it was called an Astre), the one with the unsleeved-cylinder aluminum block 4-banger. He dropped a 1969 Poncho 350ci with quiet duals in it (with a crowbar and soap, probably) and supplemented his income quite handsomely on the weekends.

Sleeper with ladder bars hanging underneath, tires shoehorned into the quarter panels, and performance stickers on the glass. Badass car though. Wish I would of held on to my 69 nova.
