    Sleeper indeed.. I like cars like this at the track, cause when they pull up to the line people are like "wtf" that thing isn't going to do nothing. And then it takes off

    The body on that Nova looked alot like the one i had, but mine had the original matching numbers bone stock 350 in it.

            Maybe i should of left my Vega the way it was and just dropped a motor in it. Since there are more and more cars like that Nova popping up.

                  very nice, but I just couldnt leave such a piece of artwork looking like a piece of crap, the sleeper thing is just not my route.

                  awesome work though.

                    I was talking to my fiancee last night and tried to explain the "sleeper" concept to her.

                    1.) Big lifted trucks = little man syndrome
                    2.) Small cars = secure manliness


                    Those who like "sleepers", tend to be people who do not need to show off, and people with loud,huge,showoff attention getters need the attention.


                    I compared it to the guy who braggs he has a huge d!ck shows it on the outside of the car, the guy who says nothing in a penis size contest is the one who takes the sleeper for the pride of knowing what you have and not needing to show it off.

                    (this made more sense in verbal form while not at work doing multiple things at once)

                    ill post a better explanation this evening.

                      I looooooove sleepers.

                      Practically speaking as well... a sleeper will have less of a chance of getting stolen or broken into... AND fewer tickets.

                          Doesn't really seem like a sleeper to me. I've seen more than one beat so shit nova thats fast as hell. The cage and the tires would easily give it away on the street and I'm sure the idle doesn't sound stock either.

                          If you want a sleeper then boost the hell out of a Honda, I never expect Hondas to be fast.
