Box stock Nova Prostreet (RedSled) 3/25

[CelticModeler]

So forgot to post pics as ive been working on this but decided to finally do the 66 nova pro street. Always loved novas and well pro streets are pretty sick. So i nicknamed this beast RedSled. I have most of the car done just waiting for clear to harden for a few days so i can do a final buff and polish. Made a kind of custom red\maroon paint with a silver metal flake which changes color drastically depending on thr light. Added the mad distributor kit and some small decals under the hood. Also this is the first car i have done a 2 tone interior and im mostly happy with how it came out. Could have done a little better but looks good to me. Also painted the frame which i thought was a nice little touch. Still need to finish the custom exhaust im making and metal foil it and add some final touches but this is what i have so far. Add

Looks great, nicely detailed.

A couple of observations:

1. That grille will look a lot better with a black wash and give it some realistic depth. Dilute some black paint and go to town!

2. A simple scrape of the hobby knife on that "TM GM" will make that chassis look even better.
