One I've not seen. Early Nova course car. http://carguychronicles.com/2019/05/chevy-ii-deuces-wild-at-the-saloon/
This is real cool! A sleeper-vibe compact conceals Ram-Jet power It was a combination Chevrolet teased, but never actually released—the fuel-injected Corvette small-block in the lightweight Chevy II compact. The basic concept of a small-block-powered compact predated the Chevy II by a couple years—it was a natural extension of repowering lightweight prewar cars with late-model engines. In one of the earliest examples, legendary hot-rodder Wally Parks shoehorned a small-block Chevy in his 1960 Comet (upscale sibling of the Ford Falcon), which was about the same size and weight as the Chevrolet Chevy II that came out for 1962. https://www.hemmings.com/blog/article/foolin-fuelie-1964-chevrolet-chevy-ii-nova/
Here is a photo of Richard Scott's Chevy from Carlsbad. I think in the beginning it had "409 Dave's" engine in it and later a 396/427 motor. This photo has the injector so the later mark motor. There was around 5 or 6 in that little co-op shop on Rowena all with similar but different skills and knowledge so we usually did not need to go far for help or advice. Like Fogger said, we were living the dream and did not know it. I am just glad we were able to race when we did. Hard work could beat money at that time.
