W-409 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 What Paint is that , on the frame? It looks excellent shade of brown/silver. Excellent work, as always, Tyrone! I'm tuned in for more to come, your builds always impress me. And this body style is maybe the nicest Nova. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasser59 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Looks killer in primer Tyrone. Can't wait for your next installment. Have you decided on a color? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrone Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 Thanks Brad... I not decided on a color yet.. but I was thinking of a nice red paint job.. any ideas from any of you guys ??... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasser59 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 A bright red would be awesome but so would any of the bright primary colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Red, Blue and Orange are very good colors for this body style of Nova. Yellow isn't bad either, like this Finnish Nova. Anyways I painted mine orange: Yours look Very nice in Primer! Can't wait for more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrKerry Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Not to put a damper on it, have you tried the windshield with the hood on it yet? It looks like the rear of the scoop is to far into the glass opening. Just something I noticed. This is a awesome build!!!! Like where it is going, I'll be watching!!!!!

bytownshaker Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Tyrone You have a KILLER build in progress. One small thing I noticed is where you removed the wiper arms you should rescribe the cowl vent slots or fill them all in. Edgar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyrone Posted December 9, 2012 Author Share Posted December 9, 2012 Thanks alot fellas.. I really appreciate the feedback... Kerry.. I still have a bit of work still to do with the hood scoop combo... I just stopped where I am with that until I get the front glass cut out and fitted, then I can make sure it sits flush against the windshield... I think I'm gonna end having to trim the opening a little more towards the front of the cowl hood area... Edgar.. you're right... Ive been debating on which way to go.. I think I'm gonna fill it in... Charlie.. thanks alot man.. you're products are what make these nitrous engines come to life..I love your demon carbs..and everything else too.. If you look closely I have your bolt head details.. all over here too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
