Very interesting !!!

I hope to be running SS for the first time this coming year.

Do you have a list like this for the 69 model year also?

Cal,

You mean the 1969 Chevrolet Models, and how the 'new' Models were classed in the NHRA in 1969.

I'll start a new 'Title Subject'.

Paul, Jay's original Nova that Willie Hormerte wrecked was one of the 234 L-34 cars. I had a choice between it and the 396-375 Nova I bought. They were the first two sold by Byrne Bros. in White Plains. Tim Byrne was a friend and tipped me off they were coming in . I was there to buy a 396 375 Camaro and he gave me first pick of the Novas. Lee.

Lee,

Hope all is well...........

I remember Jay's 'Goldilocks' like it was yesterday.

When he first ran it with Cragar S/S' wheels on the front, and black steel wheels on the back.

1971.... F/SA

Then in 1972, in SS/HA - when he was running 13.80s for the Class Trophy.

Then he got the 'new' Engine, and popped on the Super/Trick Wheels.

In 1973......'Bam'...........11.70's

396/350 HP.........1 of 234........'Who New'..........

I have photo's of his car somewhere, both at Dover and in front of the Jefferson Valley Service Station.

Paul , That's not his first nova it's the replacement. The original was light green, Goldilocks was built from a 6 cyl. car and was a 69. I bought that car from Frank Genovesi and ran it in C/S in the mid eighties. Nick Minichetti painted it maroon. I sold it in 1988 to a fellow in Hamden, Ct.
