    Default needed something with some torque

    as we all know hondas are lack in the torque department plus i have wanted one of these since i was 17 and drove one. finally had the chance to pick one up. within a week i have had 4 offers for the car. one being 3k more then i paid. it needs some work but im happy with it.

    1970 Nova SS. 4 speed. 12 bolt. full exhaust and a small cam... yeah its fun.

    350. 12 bolt rear. Its a true SS. Most were 396. Motor is not the original but I'm kinda glad. Looking into 427s and a paint job. Also new wheels. I like the look but not a fan of the 4 inch front wheels. Always worried I'm gonna fold one over.

    Thanks everyone.

    not sure if it was a 396 car. the vin only states v8. i have to see if i can find a build sheet in the car.

    yes the front will be lowered. it had bigger tires in the rear and that gave it a good stance. the guy i got it from changed them to smaller tires and now the front end is higher.
