Jeg Coughlin 67 Bracket racing Nova Wagon

Good Evening Forum 

This is a build I have been working on for a year..I started with the 66 Nova chassis an the 67 Chevelle engine..I scratch build the bed and the roll cage using the 67 Chevelle as a starting point..Wheels are part box, the hood has a aftermarket 6"cowl hood. Paint will be Tymia Matt black with an aluminum tub painted with TS-17. The body is a resin piece that spent hours getting into shape and probably still have some work to do. The one thing about the interior is there are not a lot of pictures for it..I don't have Facebook or Instagram and don't want them..Hopefully next month at the Dallas NHRA race I ask Jeggie where I can get some pics.

This is an interesting project. I've played with the idea of building the same car a few times, but it has never happened. Yet, at least. I think I might also have a resin body somewhere.

You're off to a really good start! The real car is not '66 though, it's a '67.  I wonder if there is a source for 1967 grill if you want to make it truly accurate.

You're correct sir, I fat fingered the title.  I ment to type 67

Very cool project Maurice. I love old wagons and pro street. Nice work so far.
