I've collected a few of these Chevy symbols from other Novas in the junkyards, even have one with the golden insert still in it. I figured I'd try something different. I got the idea from how Eric 'SuperNova' Harvey painted his grill red to match his car. I painted the inner part of the chevy a light green, same color as the car tho. I think it's looks good. I did the same with my spare set of 350 symbols too in Late Fall 2000.

Here's is my Smiley Face AirCleaner Lid Clock. I met this after a friend made a comment saying it was surprised I didn't have a smiley face on my air cleaner lid. So guess what I did ?? seeing how I'm known for having the trademark of having Smiley Faces everywhere.... Went to the junkyard that weekend and picked up a spare lid, and painted it up. I used this lid for most of the summer of '96 till I got my chrome air cleaner. Well, now it sits in the basement, put a clock piece in it and VOILA!!! My Smiley Face Clock.

Well, the year 2001 rolls around and the collection of Calendars for the New Year begins. I got a DR. HOOK Calendar from the Receptionist at work and thought to myself, atleast it's car related, so I pinned it up. As most of the people at work know how Nova-Crazy I am, someone has quite the sense of humour posting up a picture of MY NOVA behind this tow-truck calendar. Boy, did I have a good laugh, as did ALOT of people who've come by my cubical. HA - HA !! :) You guys got me.... and here's a picture .... Still to this day, I don't know who did it, but I have an idea on who ... my poor car .. :~(

Normally I'm not one for putting stickers on my car, but my friend Kris had a bunch of stickers printed out and putting them on the cars that cruise in our little group. Think he's trying to start a little car club of his own. The statement of the sticker is SO TRUE!!, FAST CARS ARE BUILT, NOT BOUGHT!.

The second Sticker just sticks on the window. My friend Jen bought this for me when I was up there in The Pas visiting her. I've had a few cops giggle at this one. :) I also have a few others, 'CAUTION: I swerve and Hit People At Random' & 'Don't Annoy The Crazy Person', which was on my Parisienne. Now I just alternate between them all.

As mentioned in the Story Area, Here's a picture of the REAL reason for installing a set of Hood Louvers ... There perfect for various uses such as ... PIZZA COASTERS!! Wouldn't wanna ruin the paint on the hood from the heat of the pizza boxes or having the cardboard stick on the hood. Also, they make for great Drink Coasters too. Only had one whoop-sie so far, my friend Trevor had his FULL Large Cup of Hot Choclate knocked over when a gust of wind threw up the lid on a pizza box and WHAP!, knocked the Hot Choclate over.... (hehehe...OOPS!) He was very apologetic, and he did try to clean up the mess the best he could. No Biggee, on the way home, I stopped at the Car Wash made sure to flush out the cowl area good. Last thing I need is a sour-milk smelling nova!

I've collected a few 'Nova' Brochures & Ads Pages over the years, which I usually found at Collectable & Antique Sales in the Malls. Most of them I bought back when I was in High School and usually only paid a buck or two. (My high school was next to a shopping mall). I also have another one which isn't in this picture, as I just got it from my friend Jess for Xmas (2001). I also came across an ad in the Buy & Sell one time and bought some dealer brochures for $25. I got the one for 72, 73, 74. I sold the 72 one to my friend Trevor and kept the 73 & 74, since I had a 73 & 74 at that time. (2000)

I've also collected a few Nova Cars too, which I found most of them at Wal-Mart. It's funny, the day I found the Amercian Muscle 69 Novas, I was at Wal-Mart and thought I'd take a quick peek in the toy section to see if I could ever find a nova car. Well, that one time I did, there were 8 of them, some blue, some orange... so I bought all of them and sold them to some of my nova friends for exactly what I paid for them ($8). I have never seen them since, and that was about Xmas 2000.

This mirror was created by the grandparents of an old girlfriend, and was a Christmas Present to me in 1999. Her grandparents have a little craft company they run out of their basement, and made mirror art of all kinds to sell at various Craft Sales & Flea Markets. This mirror is BEAUTIFUL !!, I love it... and a ONE of a kind piece of Art too.

My girlfriend Jen, knew of an older gentleman who built clocks. He made of all sorts including some of cartoon characters and sells them at Craft Shows. She came across this gentleman this past summer/fall and asked him to make a clock of my Nova. Jen had it made up for me as a Christmas Present in 2001. What a gift, I LOVE IT!!.... VERY NICELY DONE!!!, another ONE of a kind piece of Art too, of my baby...

Jen has done it again, this time for my 26th birthday.... she had this jacket made up for me. With the help and permission of Ben Meissner, she had the picture of PROJECT MEAN GREEN!, stitched into a jacket for me. This jacket is BEAUTIFUL!! Thank You Jen! & Ben! .... I'm afraid to wear this jacket when I'm out at a car show or out cruising, as it is just beautiful and I'm afraid to get it dirty or ruinning it.
