BALDWIN MOTION NOVA

[novadose71]

Hey Greg, can't wait to see yours done, and thanks to you. Yours and Lyle's(plus the fact it is a B/M Nova)helped push me to detail this thing out. I will probably buy two more of these in a month or so to make sure I get the corrected tank, then get a couple Yenko's when they come out. I hope they tool-up the bench seat, and non SS front grill and taillight panel for it ....and a 427 too;) .

Jake that detail on your gasser looks great, yeah those little painted wires are a pain in the ....and your weathering is awesome, nice job. I did my first 2 weathering jobs last winter and plan more......I'll be saving your pics for future reference.

Ron I like your 68 too, did you convert the dash to a 68 version? If so, was it difficult? There is a Fathom Blue 68 (Nickey or Harrel, I can't remember which) with redlines and Cragars that was in a few mags the last couple years. I saw this car at a National Nostalgic Nova meet when I was a teenager, it passed right in front of me and left a very lasting impression. I would like to replicate this car sometime in the future, and the dash has been the only thing that concerns me.

I didn't do a '68 Dashboard on this one, but I added an 8-track tape player on the dashboard. I saw the blue Dick Harrell '68 Nova in person a few years ago, and I may replicate it using the new kit. You will get a kick out of the Nova I'm doing now. All I'm gonna say that it is a big block car, with a vinyl roof like yours. Your car is drop dead georgeous.
