Overall very pleased with the end result. The fitment was not all that great, but what do you expect AMT? I know you seen the interior already, so see it again!

Holy smoke! That is some good looking Nova. I still has to do one, but then again....there is so much I wan't to do. That headers tape just made me decide to do that on my ongoing GTX, thanks for making up my mind!

Just plain awesome dude! Everything about it looks great. Stance, wheels, color engine, interior.
Is that a CD sticking out of the radio in the dash? Will you even be able to hear music over the roar of that beast of a motor?
Great build!! :bigthumb:

wow, that's a great model, and super clean too. I'm very jealous of the interior. Just a thought though, do the wheels not match, or is it just me?

MAN!!! That is just too sweet.
I can hear the sweet sound from those side headers and just feel the rumble in every bone. I know that's why you have the CD sticking out, the stereo would rarely be on :thumbsup:
Great Job

Looks great! I just got that scoop that you sent me, thanks again. I've glued it in place, and now it's awaiting spot putty for a molded in look. Thanks again. And your car looks great!

The interior is my favorite part. That gauge cluster is amazing.
Looks kinda funny without the rear wheel openings radiused, but with a rake/paint job like that who cares!
The header tape is indeed a badass trick, I'll remember that technique.
