It now has every exterior trim option you could get on a non-SS 1971 Nova except for sport mirrors. The front suspension was completely rebuilt and has big block springs. The sheetmetal on the Nova is original and the paint stripped to the bare metal and painted in pieces in 1993 with Glasurit Performance Red single stage Urethane. The interiror is all reproduction.
