Love it, T! Thanks, can't wait for your review.
Oh no! First car I really owned! I can see this one on my overloaded card, LOL!!!

WOW! I didn't see this one coming...
A long overdue image, at last. Thanks DM!
I got the flyer in the mail today...anyone want it? It's free to the first person who emails me asking for it. I'll post when it's spoken for.

This reminds me of a '68 or '69 Nova my now wife had in college ...
Her father bought her a new '68 or '69 bare bones light green 2-door Nova to drive back and forth from Maryland to college in Auburn, Alabama. It had two options, a V-8 motor and AM radio, but it would FLY.
She went on to teach at Kansas State and I went into the U.S. Air Force. The Nova was left at Auburn for her two younger brothers to drive back and forth from Maryland to Auburn.
Following my discharge from the Air Force in '73 she and I returned to Auburn and got married and we had one car, her '70 Malibu. Her youngest brother was still in undergraduate school at Auburn at the time and was driving the Nova. One day I needed to go to Lagrange, Georgia which was about 30-40 miles down I-85 from Auburn and I borrowed the Nova...it was showing it's wear and tear but it would still FLY! Yea boy.0:)
Yeah, baby!! The General has spoken!
HOT!! HOT!! HOT!! My kind of car!!!!!!!!
Hey, is this the man who said he was'nt getting the brochures of the newly released models:-/ Now you're getting them before they're introduced here:> lol
I know, weird, eh? As soon as I posted that comment I started getting flyers from DM but not for cars...only cheesy charm bracelets, necklaces, and other useless jewelry pieces. This is the first car brochure I've received in I don't know how long!
I was completely surprised, to say the least, since I hadn't heard anything at all about this model coming out.
The engine detail looks great in the flyer!

Yes, my mom had a 1970 4dr Nova with a 2bbl 305, it will also fly, but..
no substitution for the 2door SS with the 4bbl 350ci and stiffer suspension ๐ก
Sure it wasn't a 307? Mine was
I really can't recall the 4 door's engine, I know it was the 2bbl V8
Mine had the 4bbl 350 V8 with the Turbo 400 Trans.
