Lownslow Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 pretty much box stock exept i wired the engine and swapped the rims, color is nail polish topped with urethane
Lownslow Posted January 19, 2010 Author Posted January 19, 2010 Nice job! I really like the paint! If I might give you just a little bit of constructive criticism ... some Bare-Metal Foil on the window moldings and windshield wipers would give it more of a "finished" look. Like I said, that's intended constructively. Overall, I think you really nailed it! it had BMF around the windows but it looked "civilized" so i took it off i got a sharpie so im gonna blacken out the window frames
crazyjim Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Been following your build "on the workbench". The finished project looks fantastic.

Lownslow Posted January 24, 2010 Author Posted January 24, 2010 You did a GREAT JOB!! Im very interested how to use urethane The whats,nots,and anything that can help. i was very skiddish about 2 part clears for a long time but after constant disappointments from rattle bombs i decided to try it out and been happy ever since. you have to do it as posted on the directions other than that is peachy. i use Xtreme urethane clear. also just because it looks dry after 45 minutes doesnt mean it is lol

lordairgtar Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 the what now That ridge along the side of the car, people assumed that was a chrome rub strip because some Novas had a trim piece over it. But it is an actual ridge stamped in the steel.
