Any idea on what the backspacing is on the wheels? I'm figuring if they have a good bit, leave them on the car, and put wider tires on them since they match up with the paint it has now. So this is frankennova version 2 aka natural disaster. Do you have a big block you can shove in it? Everyone knows that's a good start for the torque. Gotta say I'm slightly envious of you because you always find interesting novas, but they need a bit of work. I WISH I could find even one nova at a decent price where I am. I find barely running roadkill specials, and they want an arm,leg, something private, and your first born it seems.
