Troy Trepanier does some real nice work.

The AWD ford roadster he made is my fav.

I really like the trend to modernize classic cars that wouldn't otherwise be worth making into concours winners.

I like the concept of updating, too, but I suspect that only the windshield, frame rails, rear window glass and maybe the trunk lid of that Nova are OEM.

I've been following this build since it got dropped off at Troy's, it's really a cool project.

I had a '70 10 years ago when I was in High School. Although it wasn't quite as nice as that one.

That's awesome ... in 1992. By the way, can I have my Curtis Blow tape back?

Thanks!

I'll say! That is the coolest ride I have seen all week. I'd take that over a M3 (except maybe the newest gen).
