I just stripped my car down to bare metal last fall. Cut out both quarter panels and replaced them. The motor came out in the summer and the rebuild process started. While the paint was stripped I had to gut the interior to get ready for paint. Mounting my new bucket seats. I'll need to order a set of 4 or 5 point racing harness's soon. Dropped my motor off at a city 2 hours away to be computer balanced.

1974 Nova SS
383 Stroker (Roughly 6.0L), 450HP, 500Ft/lbs.
Th350 Stage 3 Transmission, Full manual valve body(shift like manual. You can't put it in "drive" and go.)
Ratchet shifter just to make the transmission worth it.
Posi traction to get both of my 12" wide tires spinning. 295-50r15's.

Hopefully I'll get around to a minitub this summer. If not the tires will be sold and smaller ones will be put in. I'm dropping the car down just below stock height.

Paint comes this spring after the snow goes away.

Pictures haven't been worked yet. Here's the originals:
