You made this Nova super quick and super cool! Great comparison of the Pro street and this one.

The extra work really pays off in the engine bay.

Such a great display of talent on this car JR. As 70STING said, the added detail in the engine bay really helps to set this build off on an already good build. It's cool to see the different styles of builds that can come from these kits from AMT. I've always liked the Pro Street version and you've made the "street" version look just as good if not better. Great work on both of these and as others have already mentioned, thanks for the comparison of the two different styles.

Nicely done Nova... this is a kit that I love to hate. You knocked it out though!

That's a real neat pair of models. The pink one looks like it's come straight from the 90s in those colours. Well done, I like it.

This is such a great body style, and a wonderful build. I agree with Lyle! 👍 Those were really good-looking cars, and in my younger days, there were lots of fast ones around here. One of my friends bought a red, '66 Nova SS, around 1983 or '84 that had belonged to an older couple who had bought it brand new. It still had the original decals in the trunk area, and the oddest thing of all was that it was merely a 283 V8, with a column mounted three-speed, and no console. How rare was that car!?! 😳

The square bodied Novas/Chevy II were great little cars. Your build is fantastic.
