Here are a few more videos of the car:
th-cam.com/video/GGvbHFZYAiY/w-d-xo.html - Dru at the strip talking about the car and doing a run with a Grand National
th-cam.com/video/nP1vmd3iwl0/w-d-xo.html - Doing a bye run at the strip, shot from the stands
th-cam.com/video/mOJMVgicZrw/w-d-xo.html - A fan spots Dru driving it on the street and gets treated to a red light launch
Apparently the car may be featured in 1320 Video's "Drag Week" DVD series per the last forum link, but it's not clear for which year(s).
Read more about the car and build below to get a full appreciation about what's under the hood (and in the fenders)!

Nice rolling burnout!👍8:19
Damn, ya retired as soon as you started 😮
I watched this video 4 years ago and 4 years later I'm now the proud owner of a 72 nova
I remember when this car was built by Urban and featured in at least one car magazine. It was so cool back in the day. Today I would pull those twin superchargers off and install a pair of turbos. Easier to tune and control boost, would make even more power and would make the car much quieter adding significantly to the sleeper vibe.
I want to drive a car that needs a parachute
Hellllll yeah!!
I have a truck if God willing I plan on making a sleeper out of it with LS engine and Ford 9inch but leave body bone stock and leave camper on it. Sleepers are cool.
I seen this car in Detroit at the Autorama. This car had the biggest crowd around it. Old school wins over new school. Yes over a Bugatti Veyron and a Corvette ZR1 and many more. Hang your balls up at the gate. Do not pass go
Hectic car.
I know the car!!!!
The white walls gotta go.
I've watched the video serval times now and still the baddest street car just the way it is
The only thing that's more adored than a nice pair of titties 🤣
I can understand every word by Dru and the host but the caption guy aint hitting the words right has some car lingo knowledge but not slang worthy running on 5 cylinders
The rusty ball trailer hitch and Mexican throw blanket. Genius.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I LOVE STREET SLEEPERS!!!!
I wanna build my 72 like this
So beautiful
Cool guy. Cool car
Old schools aways have that lil play in the steering wheel.. CLASSIC
If they continued the shot he would have came back from the right 4:27
"Marijuana cocaine meth plus every stripper you ever met with a cherry on top" one of the best descriptions I ever heard
So where's the part where it goes and you don't talk. 👍
scary shit man badass
Was re-watching Death Proof and that's why I'm here. Gotta love the sound of that beast. Great video! Would love to have one of these, or two!!
All I heard from the owner was "blah blah blah I'm a rich pile of shit that doesn't know anything about cars and can't even change my own oil"
marajuana cocaine meth and every stripper ever with a cherry on top! now i need a cigarette
May I recommend eliminating the rag joint, I just it along with a new steering box. I'm loving it, it made a big time improvement.
Nothing cooler then a sleeper
What I want to know is, how did he find such a clean nova in Chicago with all the snow, and salt?
This thing is a felony on wheels
He said twin supercharged. You mean twin turbo?
the definition of a sleeper is the mad lad who put a V8 in a Lada
LOVE IT
would be good for delivery car
Thank you for re uploading this
1200 hp may sound like too much for some folks, but remember...YOU control the power! Awesome sleeper, dude! My first car in HS was a 1972 Nova, so yeah, I feel ya, brother!
Its cool, but it's not a sleeper
Urban Legend
Kick ass
These Cars are fun . This Car here does all that too. Im a little over 900hp. 588 cid.
Come to Tennessee and sample my 79 camaro.
I bought a 70 with a 350 with a Hurst 3 speed on the floor when I was 19..truly the most fun one could have with your clothes on!
10 thumbs up.
That car is my speed I’m getting a chubby just listening to it run and it is beautiful.
Dru Diesner is a super hero, period.
Even looking at Drew's face, you can tell he's hiding something.
holy f
awsome my favorite car
I LOVE IT!!!! That is what hot rodding is all about!!!! Bild it and enjoy it. Great video and thanks for sharing.
