Revell 1969 Chevrolet Nova SS

[Jim B]

Finished this up today.  It was a pleasurable build, and I only had an issue with the wheels.  Color is Testors Model Master Auto Lacquer Daytona Yellow.  I saw a yellow Nova SS on the Web, and used that as my inspiration.  It's not perfect, but I am please with the results.

Looks great in this color. Got two of these myself, yet to be started. Is it the angle, or is the rear window missing.

Nice bright Nova .

[Jim B]

Thanks, guys.

John, the rear window was there when I took the photo.  Must be the angle.

Nice looking nova Jim, love the yellow, it really pops.

[Jim B]

Thanks, Tom.  Now I need to find something else to use the rest of the can on! ?

Wow, that looks good.

[tbill]

68 chevelle would look good in that color........?

[Jim B]

Maybe, but I was thinking of a Kenworth W923.

Sweet!

I had a 1:1 '69 Nova SS.  Only really cool car I've ever owned.

[Jim B]

Thanks, Paul.  They are a cool car.  Bet they fetch a pretty penny now!

Sharp!

Nice. Oops, you forgot the upper radiator hose lol. Might I suggest either a Molotow chrome pen or BMF for your chrome trim.

[David G.]

That's pretty!

Sweet color, good clean build.

Very nice

[Jim B]

Thanks, guys.  I appreciate the comments.

Lee, the upper radiator hose is there.  It's attached to the top of the engine in front of the air cleaner, then runs to the lower right corner of the photo & attaches to the top of the radiator by the white bottle.

Nice build. beautiful color. When I was a kid , there was a local used car lot that had one of these, on the 1/4 panel was scripted " lemon twist".
