Yep... I've gotten the "Nice Nova" comment, too. lol
In fact, a couple of weeks ago up in Forsyth, Ga. a guy with his son, or possibly grandson,
approached and said just that:
He asked, "Nice Nova. What model and year is that"?
I replied, "Swinger, 71".
He responded , "Great looking car".
I thanked him, and they moved on. lol
My wife asked me why I didn't tell him what it was, I said, "I did".
