I picked up some topwell SS trim and interior pillar trims off ebay.
The wife intercepted the parcel, wrapped it up as a "gift" from her! I had no idea when I opened it christmas morning...silly girl!

My girlfriend waited outside while I bought my hubcaps so hiding them was not a option. I bought her a signed Trevor Linden hockey jersey to offset the caps. The girls like Trevor. Nice shop by the way it looks like a 30X40? Very, very nice!!biggrinbiggrinbiggrin

28 X 42. It was going to be 40 until I measured the truck and trailer... Yes, it was a nice Christmas present. My stocking will be empty for many years now while we pay for this!

I've posted these pics before so the veterans on here will likely do the eyerolls when they see these shots again!!! This is with the truck hooked to the trailer.

Nice boots. I have always liked those. I remember having a pair (not Harley) as a kid. I wore them 24/7 I think!

If I'm seeing that right, you have a Nova only bellhousing there. Is the clutch fork coming out at the 7 o'clock position rather than at 9 o'clock?

Sounds like there was a lot of Christmas joy spread around. I hope everybody is safe at home with family.

Then if you got a matching flywheel for it, if my theory is correct, it will be a small flywheel. As far as I've seen there is no 11" flywheel bellhousing made (stock) for Nova.

If you want to sell it you will make a Nova/Acadian guy happy because they are unique. I don't think you will get it set up easily in any other body style anyway (linkage) because of the way the fork comes out of the housing .
