My Dad's old 66 L79 Nova is still being raced. My dad's cousin bought it new. My dad bought it from him when he turned 16 in '71. He drove it in high school and then started racing it in Stock and then Super Stock.
When he started his own business he didn't have time to race so my grandfather started racing it. He pulled out the 350hp engine to chance class and put in a powerglide. eventually he built a GT car with an 80's camaro and eventually sold the Nova since he wasn't using it at the time and didn't tell my dad about it.
It's now owned by Sean Gaffney who still races it.
