Hagerty’s Driveway Finds crew already built an awesome muscle car out of a 1972 Nova found rotting in the dirt — on a $5,000 budget. Then they doubled it, dropped in an LS engine, and drove straight to LS Fest to see how hard a sleeper barn find can really launch. Watch to see whether a second $5,000 budget was enough to hang with cars that cost ten times as much.
Brito and Dustin dig a 1972 Chevy Nova out of 40 years of dirt with no engine and a badly rotted floor, then give themselves a hard $5,000 limit to make it run and drive. Hagerty’s Driveway series skips the million-dollar restoration fantasy for something scrappier and more relatable. Watch to see how far junkyard ingenuity and a tight budget can actually go.
