Safire6 Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I just finished this today. Not my best work but I'm happy with it. Built mostly box stock except I used the rear tires and plate decals from the AMT '67 Chevelle pro street. Drilled out the holes in the rims. A few mods were necessary to make things fit right, especially to the cut-out in the hood and the top of the grill. Tamiya TS-20 metallic green and TS-26 pure white. Used Molotow on the trim. I'll be adding a side view mirror and Super Sport decals for the rear quarter panels (if I can find the decals). Comment welcome! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake45 Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Very sharp, very clean, killer stance! Don't think I've ever seen a green Nova before--looks great! Well done and model on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zippi Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Man that 66 looks good. I like anything Pro Street. That color looks really nice. Maybe some bigger exhaust pipes like 2 1/2" to 3" to let that puppy breath ☺ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Great looking color. I'll bet that really looks good in the sun light. Very clean looking conversion to the Pro Street style. I like how the carbs just poke out of the hood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy grumpy Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Great looking nova, I like the white over green stripes. Nice shinny metallic green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost didn’t put them on thinking I’ll wait to use something else before I post pics. But I just wanted to ‘get r done’ and move on to the next build. I’ll probably change to larger pipes in the future. Thanks for the comments! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazlow Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Real nice, the front wheels turned gives that car magazine feel which is great, love that you lost the scoop and just the dual quads out the hood, well done, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't like the looks of the scoop in the kit so decided to delete it. But I wish I could have gotten the dual quads and filters centered better in the hood opening.

Dennis Lacy Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Nice! Looks fantastic in metallic green and I’m generally not a fan of rally stripes but they work great here. I also like the addition of the treaded tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
