Nice, been looking for the convertible version of one of these.
-
Kind of an up date on an older post. Got some better pictures and more of them,
-
Thought the car looked pretty cool, plus you never see many kits of the full size cars, so I picked it up.

Been questioning whether or not to get the kit as I hated the 68 kit. I must say this was worth the money and it came out looking not to bad.

Thoughts on any of the following

Other than the 69 Mustang and the 69 Firebird I found all the other models pretty good. I liked the Torino the best. -
I tried it before, but ran into problems with that too.

GREAT kit... not necessarily my build... 69 Nova

Looks good, but I'd have gone with the COPO. I think it was a better kit than the SS version. -
I got one of these kits as well. It's not bad, but like you said it is lacking in quite a few areas. I remember having trouble getting the bumpers to fit right. I do, however, like that it includes some custom parts that could be used on other cars. I used the wing spoiler from the kit on my 70 Cuda; which I was angry that a wing spoiler was not included with the kit.

It is brush painted. Don't have the money to spray it. I also had some trouble with the paint coming off when I put on the clear coat. I've never had that happen before, but I had to do some touch ups of the paint.

Not bad for a kit that was incomplete when I bought it. Wish it had emblem decals, but it came out great.

Looks Great

Looks good. I know the fit with this kit was an issue; I did one awhile back myself. I had an issue with the tail lights. They are too small to fit and kept falling into the hole. I had a similar chassis issue with the Chevelle model they make. The chassis sat too far back. I see a bit of the pant issue you were talking about, but your model looks far better than mine did.

Thanks, it was originally going to be Sublime, but I had some extra yellow paint from my Opel and Camaro. I did one of these in red a long time ago. I think it was one of the first few models cars I ever built. It came out OK, but since then I've wanted another that I could do a better job on. I saw the vinyl top like that on another car and thought it would be a cool look for this one.

Looks amazing -
Came out looking good. It's not a bad kit. Looks awesome in red and black. -As a side note, I had trouble uploading the photos. Had to do it one at a time, and back out of the page, then come back to the page to upload with each image.
