  • The grandson of a California hot rodder and son of a national drag racing champion, James Schiefer was born with gasoline in his veins. After getting a look at the Ring Brothers’ “Recoil” Chevelle build ( • Ringbrothers Recoil Ch... ), James began to plot, plan, and scheme for his own project. And thus was born his 1967 Chevrolet Nova SS.

    My dad had one when I was growing up, all original, we took it to car shows multiple times per summer. It was a gem. Blue with black/white ("skunk stripe") interior. Manual transmission. Actually found the original window sticker behind the back seat when he sold it. Even my mom cried when the next owner pulled it out of the driveway. Forget retirement, I'm saving up to buy one of these.

    I always love a car that has been gone through and updated and refinished to look correct. Never was a fan of the "patina" cars because they just looked like most of the hot rods back in the day because the cosmetics were always the last thing someone would spend money on so a fully finished hot rod was really rare in the midwest and you always appreciated them.

It is something that's modern? and Fun? I don't know the answers to these questions for the life of me. But it's a sweet car? Oops. It's a sweet car.
