Some outdoor pics please. :) 86_SR5 05-25-2004, 07:26 PM The car looks soo great, except, there's no sidewalls on those tires. I love this car, and Im thinking of getting the Pro Street 66 Nova. Anything special you had to do to get them rims to fit? Okiemodelbuilder 05-25-2004, 08:05 PM The car looks soo great, except, there's no sidewalls on those tires. I love this car, and Im thinking of getting the Pro Street 66 Nova. Anything special you had to do to get them rims to fit? Nope. The front tires are from the Revell Acura Integra and the rears are Hoppin Hydro 20s. That's about the biggest rear tire that will fit on the rear of an unmodified AMT '72 Nova. Marc - Okiemodelbuilder JBarry 05-25-2004, 09:12 PM Super Nova! Great build. I look forward to seeing it finished. I built a 1:1 once, from the ground up. Took a year to complete. Love this car! J. Barry ol' dude 05-25-2004, 09:52 PM Yeah, that looks sweet as hell!! pre98zetec 05-25-2004, 11:06 PM Very, Very nice. Love that color and the interior is top-notch.

I bashed it with better detailed heads from the AMT '57 Chevy truck street machine, modified headers from the AMT '83 Camaro Z28, NASCAR 18 degree valve covers and EFI from the Revell '59 Corvette. The engine block was painted with Alclad Dull Aluminum. The intake, valve covers and water pump/timimg cover were shot with Alclad Magnesium. Headers, alternator, pulleys and master cylinder are painted with Alclad Chrome. Bolt heads were also painted with Alclad Chrome.
