Such a sad story for such a cool car. Awesome vid man

[cisneros]

The memories are what these cars are about. That car is strictly business. Badass!

I love seeing this old Nova again.

I remember helping Mike's brother work on this bad boy back in the old days. Still have a scar on my knuckle helping him with it.

Many hot NorCal summer days in this car, and I don't recall the AC ever working!

Thanks for the stroll down memory lane!

Nice stance. Love the look of a nova. That must be his most valuable possession cause of the family history.

Lots of love to this guy. Kept his head up throughout all the challenges in his life

So good to see this beauty again. Mike was my brother in law. I was married to his older brother Mark. Boy, he loved working on and driving that Nova! Spent many days/nights wrenching on it with him. He taught me a lot! Great memories...thank you! RIP

[juliogonzalez]

For me.... that nova is priceless because of the sentimental value... that car has SOUL 👍🏾😎👍🏾

Killer Novacoach Man ! Way to go keepin it in the family ! I’m sure Your Mom, Dad and Bro would be happy that Your still enjoying it! 🤙🏼🍻

Glad someone else has sentimental attachment to a vehicle. My son Aaron's 1997 Honda which he drove for a year sits in my driveway. Everyone thinks I am crazy for wanting to repaint it . Paint is in the gagage but age is catching up to me. My heart says yes, my body says no. And I owned a 1972 Nova which made me post this. I love doers and dreamers.

Great coverage! I like that you don't only cover supreme high end expensive builds.

[tommyfrombama]

The exhaust note is fantastic! I have always loved the 68-72 Nova, they are great cars.

[kelevra]

May your mother and brother rest in peace. Thats just awesome how many memories the three of you have in the car and youre keeping them all alive which is just beautiful. Right on man.

I love the way you treat the guests on your show. You are always so genuine and respectful and appreciative of every little effort they have made to create something unique. It's a joy to watch something like your videos in this time of endless virtual garbage.

[impslap]

OMG. This is mechanically VERY similar to my '71. LS3 TR6060, 9-inch, TruTurn, etc. I even bought it from the second owner since '74. Very cool car. Sad story but nice to see he honors his family with this.

[rlovell]

Love the real world homebuilt cars... Keep em coming!!!

[johnbehneman]

Thank you so much. I love my hot rod family. Thanks for sharing, I learned so much. Nice clean daily driver and fun at the autocross.
