1969 427 Yenko Nova

[Hodrodz]

Just completed this nova after working on it in my spare time for about 4 months.  Opened the doors and trunk, scratchbuilt door and trunk hinges. Added wires and hoses to engine along with my first time making an oil dipstick and scratchbuilt functional hood hinges. Plumbed in brake and fuel lines and scratchbuilt a complete 4 link rear suspension. The interior is flocked and detail painted. Added in a headliner and an ignition key. Window and door trim is molotow. Wheels are salt flats from Texas 3D customs. Calling this one done other than a couple of small touch ups. Thanks for looking.

I’m loving this one! I admire the creativity and effort in the scratch built extra detail and how the butternut yellow paint and saddle interior trim look together . ??

Awesome level of detail. ?

[Bullybeef]

Wow, I’m impressed by the fitment of the doors and trunk, your model has better panel gap than some cars I’ve seen 1:1.

Beautiful looking body work and paint. The long side decals must have been hard to get this straight. Very nice looking interior and the engine detailing looks great. Like the suspension and chassis detailing.

Very Nice build!!

     ....remember seeing these in the '70s...wished my hardest to be older, by the time I could drive they had already either met their demise or rat-holed in someone's collection.

Very nice Yenko there James, that colour combo looks great and the scratch work and extra details takes it to the next level. Really well done.

Very nice. Open doors and trunk, just the right color, nice wheels... Looks like a lot of work went into this one. The results are top notch.

I missed that, but after your comment I had a second look. The license plate with his avatar name is cool too.

Well done on opening the doors. I am not brave enough to attempt that feat.
