BeakDoc Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 So, the theme (in my head, at least) for this build was something a high school gear head would have tooled around in in the mid-70s to early 80s. I have the inline 6 dogeared for the Nova wagon sometime in the future. I pulled the 421 and wheels from a ‘65 GTO kit that was all but destroyed during shipping. Just a fun little change of pace build. Paint is Dupli-color Stone White and Tamiya TS-35 Park Green with Wet Look clear. Comments, questions, tips, pointers and critique is always welcome. Thanks for looking. Namaste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larman Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Nicely done! I like the Pontiac engine! My dad had that era Chevy pickup with an Olds 394 in it for a short time back in the early 70's. That sort of swap was certainly done back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve H Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Hi Chris, this is a perfect example of your build vision. Wheel choice is spot on for that era. One of my best friends dad had a Ford with turbine wheels just like that. Well executed! Some turbines had a grey colour between the “spokes”, some were polished as I recall. Cheers, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kromolly Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Awesome build. That looks like something that would have been parked in my high school parking lot. Love the Poncho engine and tripower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metalbeast Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Love it! But a word of warning. The engine from this wouldn't be correct for a Nova, if being correct is you thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
