[LEEVON]

Well, that little gem belongs to my Old Man, his '62 Nova convertible. He bought it about 2 years ago and it was so bad to drive with the old manual drum/drum brakes and broken down steering that he drove it maybe twice. It really was scary to drive. I convinced him to bring it to my house and let me give it a suspension/brake/wheel makeover. I found a 5-lug rear and disc brake spindles from a '65 sedan and had them blasted, painted, etc.... He bought CPP's mini subframe, power disc brake conversion, fuel tank, new brake lines, new steering stuff, and the Coy's wheels/tires. I basically gutted the underside of the car and started fresh. Rides like it should now.

The bad part is it took me like 7 months and we completely missed the cruising season. I brought it to my house in freezing weather and it went back to him in the same weather. He was so happy with me though that for Christmas he bought me a whole new interior for my '71 Cheyenne.
