webestang Posted October 23, 2021 Posted October 23, 2021 Going to build this one hoodless but with the top up. Thinking black with red interior and top. Using the engine/trans (red plug wires)/rear end/wheels from the Nova kit, decided not using anything from the newer Vette kit. Gotta find better rear tires.
Rick L Posted October 23, 2021 Posted October 23, 2021 Good luck with that kit. I had that very kit years ago and it had terrible fit issues. Never fond of ERTL kits after that.
Zippi Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 That will be a kewl build. Looks like you have everything all cleaned up and some parts primed.
NOBLNG Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 Interesting…I have one of these, so I will be watching.
Supernurd Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 Built stock, that is a frustrating kit because of the inaccurate ride height. Its possible to get a nice model out of it, but takes alot of work if you have the time and patience. But if you are hot rodding it anyway it probably won't matter.
webestang Posted October 24, 2021 Author Posted October 24, 2021 I remember I built a kit like this as a kid in the 70's but it came with a painted metal body. I have noticed that the top is ill fitting so it will need some attention. And she will be a bit jacked up in the rear. Side note, I did not find any of my paint brushes or spray cans. Must be somewhere in storage. Off to the local hobby shop.
