  1. You could tear off old headers , purchase small rectangle strene ,glue small sections (1 each to where exhaust goes then add headers from double whammy! Just a thought ,I'm in the process of ruining the melting headers .

    63 Nova SS

    Excellant job! Yeah you better believe it ,Novas came with a six. Man you should have been at my house in the late 60's when these guys came over to hang around with my older sister. The one guy brought his yellow 60's Nova ,I don't remember if it had crager wheels, but I'm sure it had a rake to it. Man this guy had a crush on my sister.
  3. How about the factory green metallic ,with a Black vinyal top! It's yours to do what you want, and as years go bye, your thoughts might change!
  4. Off white ,with a wide Burgandy bottom .
  5. Did you know they actually came from the factory with a 396. I think. Not many ?
  6. It's to bad you didn't paint the bottom of the chassis with gray primer,and then added black to the frame rails,and detail accordingly! Thats an old car ,more detail . (Dang)
  7. Why don't you try this, I tried but it would be cool to see if you could do this, Working on the rear fenders why don't you add an additional rear fender to bring out the width,and also the rear fender lip should try to be inline with the hub of the axle, or lug nut area. Your making it look like a more stock fender with big tires in back. I tried a 66 gto rear fender and it looks bad too wide ,but I like oval opening of the rear fender. I also was gonna suggest ,closing the hood opening, so it's more daily driver look, as for the blower thats up to you!!!!!!! Maybe header outletcovers, and exhaust also routed under the chassis. (Just like cut outs)
  8. I like what your doing,but why don't you try closing the scoop hole ,and building it more like on the daily driver route! And i've tried this ,but didn't turn out quite like I wanted is closing up the rear wheel openings ,so the lip or edge of opening is in line with the lug nuts or hub !!!!! I tried 66 gto rear fender attached to rear fender of the willys, (when I did it ,it's to wide (ugly ) But that was what I tried!
  9. Really nice job! Did sportmens have a back bumper, or did they have round tubing for a bumper? I vaugly remember a guy getting his 57 chev out the garage sat nite and put it on the trailer,open headers!!!!!!!!! Man that thing took a lick"in
  10. I clicked once,Damm! Oh your funny!
  11. I'll be five-oh this year ! Whopee ! Break out the deep heating rub, Everyone should lose some weight. Rock&Roll, Loud headers, hit the ground runnin!!!!
  12. Yes Of Course! To all the Naysayers Yes. Look around you, you know what though run away when the teacher starts waxing poetically! From the book!
  13. Try buildin a L-88 hood for it ,instead. Long live the L-88 hood ,seems it falling by the wayside.
  14. Any link yet, to see all the contestants models? Does that got a hemi?
  15. You should try to recess the front blinkers,and grille some ,Nice job I had a model like that ,blended a corvette L-88 bubble scoop ,plainted it Black. Added some cotton behind the rear tires on my makeshift dragstrip diorama,and took a kodak a moment.
  16. I like the 63 el camino, but I would lengthen the bed ,match up the tail gate area like it should be. Yeah cool...
  17. I was wondering ,do you leave your moldings bare,(mask 'em off ) so you can apply BMF? thanx
  18. Hey does that thing got a hemi? (Never Forget
  19. So on the last day are all contestants gonna post pictures of finshed models? Da just my two cents
