Aside from all the sweet parts he didnt mention the probably 1000 hours of metal work, body work, sanding, over and over just to get everything perfect. Most of which you would never see once complete but someone sat there and made them straight as an arrow and shine like glass. Thats what sets the car apart.
shows how much of a true car guy Brent is if he can love and appreciate a old classic Chevy nova as much as any Honda or import.. dude is genuine about anything with a motor and that is a dying breed
Money for parts is important, but patience, knowledge and a desire for perfection is importanter. The Nova is pretty slick. Thanks for getting your camera, and thanks to the owner for saying yes...
This is probably the BEST tuner channel on RU-vid. I love the fact Brent likes all makes and models and love his superior understanding of Honda's too.
beautiful car hats off to the owner for not only owning it but sounds like really putting in his own blood sweat and tears instead of just paying someone else!!!
Sweet ride it's all about the details and he hit them all . Doing a solid for a buddy and found a beauty , I love how pumped you are about all things with a motor. You attitude is contagious no wonder why your surrounded with good people,you deserve it. Thanks for sharing .
Man I got to quit reading & commenting without my glasses ! I don’t get into ripping trolls but this was getting too much , then I re-read and realized it was museum not Muslim and ..... the rest just don’t let your mind jump to irrational thoughts ! Didn’t want to come across as antiseptic .
@@allensandven0 I haven't laughed so hard in a long time :D oooh my gosh.... "Antiseptic" nearly killed me, i know it was auto correct that's what's so great lmfao XD .... the best part is you meant antisemitic and it has nothing to do with Jews , Allen you should do stand - up ,as yourself , pretending to play a character. You are my favorite unintentional comedian ever!!!!
Brett Brumley lolx2 I just read it and yea ! The reality was I spent 10 min trying to get the spell check right and then it changed it after all that ... go figure !
Never erase your B roll ha ha ha. Your a busy man this last two weeks. Did a great job! Don't forget to chill and count your blessings. Godbless brother
Thanks Brent for putting the time, effort and passion you do to make your videos. Especially the customer car stuff. You could just do them and get them done but you take the time to make them into videos for us. You guys are greatly appreciated.
Love the color!!!!! Had a 69' Firebird the same color when I was younger. Wish I still had it. This car is so clean, I would be proud to own it too. These Nova's where such a small package, you really don't need much under the hood to motivate it down the road! Very cool piece!
They were surprised you noticed the little things! Lol! You a car guy! No matter the make or model we can all appreciate the time that went into make something beautiful! Glad you had a safe trip back home! Time to get back after it!
Man that nova is sick, looks like old school Hillborn Injection intake. My buddy specializes in building old vintage sprint cars. Man such a sweet ride. Definitely one of a kind
You guys are awesome! Brent, you do so much for the car community, your a role model. That car was sweet, good job Mr. Shane. This is the stuff dreams are made out of and become reality with blood sweat and tears.
Love me a Sprint car!!! My father raced open wheel modified class for 20 years. The outlaw Sprint cars used to do cat walks on the front stretch in my hometown. The Dodge variant ones were 440 big block alcohol injected.. gnarly!!!
Wow, what an absolute work of art. The time and money spent on that car is just mind blowing. So many man hours had to have gone into it. Thanks for sharing Brent!
If you have never heard a outlaw 410 Sprint car you should. They have a puck style clutch that weighs nothing like 4-6lbs(think big splines and no transmission) when they rev them in the pits it's 2500-8200 so fast it sounds like nothing else you can imagine. And they make 1horse for 1lbs of car and they play on dirt!
Who the hell polishes a block? You sir just won the 2019 OCD Award. You are my hero, I look up to you as an OCD person. This is one of the best well done classy tasteful cars I've ever seen. People don't understand when owners say "Nut & Bolt Restoration"......well this is what it means.
That is more than just a car , that is a very good idea and a pice of art and talint ,MY oh MY it makes me want to CRY ,And you can brag allllllyou want big man 65 NOVA more than cool 😎
That's definitely a top 5 of favorite novas I've seen. I had a 70 chevelle had to sell to a friend. Planning on buying back after got back on track n he wrecked it the first week. One of the saddest days of my life. Hopefully I'll be able to buy another some day.
GOD DAMN THAT'S HOT ! thank you Brent for filming this and I hope if you get more opportunities you're willing to fill them and post those as well . ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Dude that Nova is so sick such a gorgeous color to that man did a fine job on that work of art love me some muscle cars and love random videos like this it's awesome and hope you had a great Easter Brent
I love the video Brent excellent camera work it's nice to see that for a change you made the effort to get underneath the car and show that Chrome tranny and a carbon fiber driveshaft beautiful excellent car and excellent work from you thank you I didn't waste my time watching it like others it waste your time not this one thanks
Typically 410 methanol burners in sprints are anywhere between 900-1200 depending on the pill etc. A extended 8k + rev out of these engines is not uncommon on the track, so hearing one on the dyno would deff be cool.... though I doubt he would be game considering these engines are not really built for longevity when doing so, rev engines have to be "freshened up" all the time simply due to the nature of the builds.... IF he didn't change things to provide it with more longevity in mind that is. Sprints are direct drive so it would be interesting to know how much loss through the trans there is there....for science! :) LOL
I'm curious if Brent would ever build/mess with something v8. I know hes Honda through and through but just curious if hes ever had his heart on some classic big block or small block car.
Owning a muscle car and a sprint car,what a lucky guy! Would love to hear the Nova run. Next video be sure to keep your microphone close to the person your talking with.
Thanks for showing it to us. I watch your channel because your such a badass tuner but I'm more into the V-8 stuff so getting to see this was cool. Your the man.
Can't wait for you guys to tune my xB on the 16th! Fingers crossed everything goes well after I get the engine back in so I can break it in before tuning.
Awesome i live in South Dakota and I go out to Rapid City and Sturgis every summer for the motorcycle rally you guys should swing out it's always a blast
That Nova is SICK !!!! man the detail and the bodywork and paint wow It takes a guy that has worked with his hands all my life, and built everything I ever owned or wanted, to truly appreciate the labor and talent and tenacity that goes into a project like that. Truly a work of art. I also love work like that because you can see his individuality and originality in every detail. Thanks so much for taking the time to share it with us all. God Bless.
That nova is my dream muscle car but I want mine in a gray color with black American racing wheels or welds either one. Thanks for showing that nova it was really awesome car.
Too cool! I love Chevy II's! They're among the few Chevy's I wouldn't be embarrassed to own. So when this guy put a sprint car engine in one it seems only fitting as the Midget engines came out of these! The 153 was a 230 6 cylinder with two cynilers lobbed off, and used in Midget racing for years. From there they went to a larger 180 cubic inch four cyl based on the 153 that came out of Marine applications. I don't k ow what they are using these days, but they were fun little cars even with the four. With a high revving 283 they were quick as hell at the strip. One of my instructors had one with a 292 6 out of a truck. One night he was racing a late 70's Z28 with a 350, spanking the boy big time and when he let off it spun two rods. Running the long stroke six with stock rods at 7500 rpm probably wasn't the best idea. Today you can get rods made for about anything, or have custom ground cranks to work with small block rods.
