[HPOF Changes]

Thanks guys for the infromation on the HPOF. I did realize that HPOF is a noncompetitive class. My '63 4dR Chevy II Nova would be a match for this class. It's too original to restore and I just want to show it off. The driving class would be perfect for my '63 Chevy II wagon. I'm restoring it to be a driver for car events. Thanks again guys.<BR>

[HPOF Changes]

I heard the same thing about opening up HPOF to cars 35 yrs and older. I think it is a great idea before we lose all the original cars to being restored. I have one car I'd like to have in the class. A '63 Chevy II Nova with 60,000 miles. Yea, the exterior paint might be dead as a doornail but, it a pretty decent car. Maybe ronbarn can help with this question. How do you go about getting a car entered into HPOF. I've read the Judges Manual but it seems to be a little vague. Who would I need to see? How much of the car can be restored while still having orginal items? How much documention on the oringal features do you need? Just what you would have if it was being judged on the field and the item questioned? Thanks for any help.<p>[This message has been edited by novaman (edited 07-24-2000).]

[66,67 Nova LS79]

I don't know of LS79 being an option. It sounds like one of the codes GM gave to some of the V8 engines. In 1966, if you check your serial number on the door post, look at the 2nd and 3rd numbers if they read 17, your car should be a SS 6cyl. If they read 18, it should be a SS V8. If reads neither, it's not a SS.
