photomakersr Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 (edited) Picked up this nice Chevy Nova SS Pro Stocker complete but but box is toast. Got it from some guy named Gregg from Hawaii - on Ebay. I am doing the Pro Stocker version. Have it all painted and now its glue time. Making this one out of the box. And the starting bid by Greg was very reasonable. Have the engine finished and chassis as well - now to just put it together and Clean it up a bit. Have to polish out the body and get it ready for decals. The seats are actually a dark tan but under the natural light i used they look gold. Finally got it finished this weekend. Got the pipes routed under the chassis where they belong. Decals were a real problem, kit was real old and several of the just split into pieces, but I think it came out pk.

JasonC Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 How much did you pay for this kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outragis Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 hopefully not that much, looks like it needs lots of work and a trip to the purple bath! If your missing some parts, let me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Pol Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 The fenders are the fun part most of them just don`t line up. And the chrome along the bottom front window a lot of the fenders from this kit don`t have the chrome trim John Pol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PappyD340 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I used to have one of those, but don't know what happened to it I think I still have the box though that I keep parts in and I'm pretty sure I saw that hood in one of my parts bags the other day but anyway hope it turns out well.

W-409 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I have this kit and I built it years ago. I have been thinking that why people say that the Fenders don't fit... In my kit I had absolutely no problem with them. But I remember that the engine in this kit is Way too small and quite simple also. So a different engine from some other kit might be a good idea.

johnbuzzed Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Did this kit ever have two engines...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonC Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Did this kit ever have two engines...? I have 3 of these kits. One like the OP that I built when I was younger, and two that I picked up when they where reissued. They have a small block and big block in them.

Davewilly Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 The kit builds into a nice finished model...I have built 3 of them....this is the only one I have left though...but they all turned out pretty nice I thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
