i got this amt/ertl  street customs nova kit in a trade i did with gloozalot  
i  did a chassis swap  the chassis was a first gen camaro  from my parts box i had to remove the drive train/transmission tunnel  and found a  back seat that would fit  in my parts box it was from a 70 and a half camaro  the center console is from a 70 chevelle   the rims and tires came from my parts box
the engine bay  is a mess  due to the only chevy engine i  had that would fit the chassis was a first gen camaro engine  i also had to put the battery were ever it would fit  and there was some other deletions  which  made the whole bay look bad to me   so i did not even take a picture  of it  if i come across a partial squad rod 79 nova that has a complete chassis engine and engine bay and interior  i will do a complete  chassis  engine and interior swap with the macgyvered interior and  chassis set up it currently has 
i painted the body to as closely match the amt/ertl box art car as i could which was rust-oleum 2x  gloss cranberry

Looks great Michelle!  I like the wheels you picked

thanks they were the closest i had in my rim and tire box to the ones on the box art car

Fantastic Boxart build... you have replicated what so many others expected to see when they opened the box rather than the Pro-Street kit. I think alot of buyers were disappointed in the contents... I was happy either way. ? Come on Round II, reissue this kit! ? It really is a good looking model built up. Well done!
