1966 Nova Wagon ( now for some changes)

Discussion in 'Off Topic Hot Rods & Customs' started by rob-redm, Sep 11, 2024.

  1. went for New Year's 2025 drive yesterday. that was a blast. already have a new 2025 list started... out with HEI, going with an MSD 6AL Box ( with rev control) MSD Pro Billet Dist, and Blaster coil... new plug wires ( MSD) or if anyone has a suggestion what better ... Blue print 396 crate engine has headers... but the plug connectors are close.. should I use some type of heat protection.. ? also a few friends have pointed out the fuel supply line to the carb... we will be changing that .. also put an metal inline fuel filter at the back.. can see it in the picture .. but there is a rubber hose running to a either glass or plaster visable filter... .. going to change this a solid line... output_image1726093786672.jpg

    Love your Wagon brother, it's got to be a riot.

    My daily driver for the past 15 years is also a '66 Chevy II Wagon that I thought I'd share a couple of pictures with you so you don't feel like a lone ranger around here.

    Very nice! Much improved with the changes you’ve made too. The wheels in particular look great, what gold do you use on them?

  16. So a friend of mine... did this color on some American's on his Dad's 56 Chevy... It's Eastwood's Carb Renew paint.. The color of the gold is great... I've contacted @eastwoodco , it's not available right now... Need to replace his can of paint... Its being reformulated per the Rep I spoke with .
