Torque thrusts are the only aftermarket wheels allowed on muscle cars in my house, therefore, you may bring your nova over any time. haha
Looks real good. any plans other than just building it? Color? any other body mods being considered?

plan to primer it with tamiya white followed with boyd's dark yellow. it's a toss up for either bmf or a black chrome trim around the windows.just minor mod to engine with plug wires and a resin four barrel.

Nice build! This model is really a classic here in Argentina.
Is that BMF on window trim? The rest is just OOB-chrome?
How did you find the kit quality overall?

you will have to sand down the inside of the fender wells, take some off the wheel spindles and get yourself some brake cailipers and discs from pegasus.
