AMT 63 Nova Wagon "454SS"

Not so curbside kit.....

Used an AMT Nova SS chassis and ALL related parts underneath, Revell ChevelleSS 454 engine and related parts.

Stuff in the interior came from multiple sellers here locally and online. 

Color is Mission Models Iridescent Pearl Teal shot over Splash Paints Sparkle Silver Base.  Primer was Tamiya White.  Mr. Hobby 2k UV Cut Clear is the final coat cut with 5k, 8k, 10k, and 12k wet sandpaper....then machine buffed and polished.

Thanks to @Hondamaticfor the cool ideas for the build....this car really has a story to tell if you stare at it long enough. 

Thanks for looking.....

Beautiful.  Any alterations needed to fit the chassis?

Good looking little 4 door wagon.  Nice job.  Not sure about the beer choice.

You need to clean out the back seat before you take your mom for a ride.  Just saying.

 

Great model!

I like all the extra body work you did with the spoiler in front. The added goodies in the back look great as well. Beautiful looking paint and color. The 454 looks almost OEM.

I took a small piece of the curbside chassis and added it to the SS chassis.....

Watched this one come together. Final product is awesome! You should secure that cooler. When the pedal's stomped, that ice will be all over, (and it'll ruin the magazines.)
