THE OLD PRO NOVA

[Brutalform]

I wanted to build the Old Pro except I wanted to use the Revell kit for obvious reasons.  I remember this kit from when I was young, and IMO, is the coolest box art. Except the actual model was a disappointment. I changed the rear lights in the supplied bumper, and added side markers for the right year. I think the mags are from Moebius, and the big ole honkin AMT scoop was grafted onto the Revell hood. That scoop had to remain on the build.

Tom this is a drastic improvement!  Very cool idea and very well executed.  AMT and MPC had some neat drag car kits but the chassis and engines were often lackluster or just plain inaccurate.  And the AMT Nova body was fiddly with those separate fenders.  Again great job.  -Mark
