Thanks for the replies, fellas...and if you see me scewing something up in the pics, give me hell about it! Robert, yes I've bought from Chevy 2 Only before - they have everything.

Nice project post, I love it!
I went with Robert down there to Chevy II Only, I was amazed at what all they carried. Several old cars and front ends around as well.
When Robert acquired that old Deuce back in the seventies it was white with a hand applied flame job running down the side...As I recall we were looking for a post car at the time because it fit a class better.

paul, my brother doug bought the 55 dale used to race, so we were at his farm place, quite an experience. when people talk about barn find this is really it. i was amazed at the no. of cars he had laying around back then, most are probably gone by now, but you never know. when i get a little more computer illiterate im going to try to post some pictures of my 67 vette that im doing for a,b, and top stock, im pretty excited to have it out next summer anyway keep up the good work novas were the first love of my car life ive always got a soft spot for them. lynn

Time to revive this old thread, since I finally have some good pics to add. I tore apart the front subframe...

Somehow didn't get any 'bare metal' pics of the subframe, but here it is after some epoxy primer...

I went with the del-a-lum bushings from Global West...

I can definitely tell you...front end parts for these cars are not cheap! More commentary: this front end design makes my first-gen Camaro look like a Z06!!
OK, back to the story...lower control arms, spindles, strut rods:

And, finally, the brakes:

More to come soon, as I'm going to finish building my spring compressor today and put the springs in. Then it can sit on all fours.

Looks really nice Paul! Looks like your paying attention to every detail. What color are you going to paint it?
