'64? Chevy Nova modified. This is Big Donkey Resin. Sadly, they seem to have shut down. I guess some bodies are still available at Mike's Decals, but this car was about five packages put together to build a complete model. I really liked their products. They did wonderful stuff.

Really like your build!  From what I understand, Larry Baisch of Big Donkey is still casting all of the resin parts that are sold through Mike's Decals site. The story I heard was that Larry wanted to concentrate on producing the parts, so he made an arrangement with Mike to handle the "business transaction" side of the deal and take care of the customer ordering, billing and fulfillment through his website. That frees Larry up and he continues to cast the parts as needed.

Looks the part, this style modified are a bit foreign to me, although I have a similar, partial build Mustang in a box waiting for motivation. Nice dirt work on the chassis.

Exceptional! I like the MPC headers. I'll have to contact Mike about the body and hoods. Sprint car hoods look good as well.

I'm building an OG Mustang one right now. I modified the kit hood, not sure if I like it yet. I have some Big Donkey ones too.

I got a Ron Coon order on the way with various parts for the build. I'm not sure how period correct a CAE in/out box will be for the era.

Good looking modified you've got there. Just enough dirt to make it look even better.

I've used some Big Donkey modified bodies and really like them.
