My Car is Complete
.......as far as the paint is concerned. Still some fine tuning and interior detail. It never ends!

I don't like the hood but other than that it looks awesome. I have a special place in my heart for Novas.

nice
i know it may be just my opinion, but is there anything you can do to the front directionals, as in spray tint them some or does anyone make a white lens? i think either of those would make the grille area look a lot better, but like i said maybe thats just me.

You need a better camera. IMO the video doesn't do your paint or motor justice.

Thanks.
Those taillights were found in 73 and 74 Nova's, A lot of guys use 68-72 parts on there cars because it is easier to find parts. I like the look of my car.
They don't make them in white, I never really paid to much attention to them.
I know it was off my crappy digital camera!
They are tight, but they don't rub.

Did you run an open exhaust? your car was pretty loud. My best yesterday was 10.64, I might try one more time in two weeks, this time I'll take my mufflers off.
