You didn't push the throttle hard enough, obviously. ;)

How long did all that take?

Not sure how much of the drag racing drama series' you watch, but it seems I've really gotten to like the looks of old Novas. Murder Nova and Goliath are a couple of beautiful looking cars, IMO. Don't even need to be tubbed with monster slicks on 'em. ;)

That's nice. Unfortunately, mine would be stuck in a heated garage for 3-5 months out of the year. I suppose I could visit it from time to time, sit in it and make 'vroom vroom' sounds while looking at the snow out the window. :\

Regards,
Nick
