Update on the ole nova

Well there has been a few new things happing to the nova.First is I'm selling the rodlights and going to buy some 15x4 inch rallys for the front,and 4 baby moon center caps.Also I will be getting a new front bumper and maybe if the car doesn't vapor lock again will get some new emblems.Also the primer grey is going.I taped the car up tonight and I hand sanded most of the right front fender.Dad was sanding some rust spots on the roof and 1/4's.We half untill friday morning to get the car completely painted for street warriorz at Atlanta motor speedway.Any ways here is some pics.I also have a burnout vid but I can't seem to get it loaded on photobucket.

Are you painting it there? I understand if thats the only place to do it , But I would think you maybe should have put a clear tarp or something down and rolled the car on top of it first? Not trying to be an *****. Hey ... You gotta do whatcha gotta do!:D Good Luck and don't keep us waiting to long before posting up picks of the New Paint!

looks good, just a primer at this point?

Thanks.I think it may be that color for a long time.I love the flat black hot rod look.:devil:

i love the flat black look also..love the car:yes:

Flat black, one of my favorite colors. And fits nicely with the Frank Castle mystique.

What do you want for the Rodlites?

Looks good...Just remember that primer is porous, and can/will allow it to rust from the inside out. No energy to remove the trim/tail lights/emblems/everything huh?

Nice job, what size cowl hood do U have.

I really like the stance of your car, what size tires/rims are you using and w/ what backspacing?

What do you want for the Rodlites?

$400 for the wheels,center caps,and lugnuts.
Nice job, what size cowl hood do U have.
Its a harwood 4 inch glass hood.

The fronts are 15x3.5 and the backs are 15x8 with 5.5 inch bs.The back tires are 235/60/15 and the fronts are 26 inches tall.

Yes it does.That is my favorite movie.Plus the 3rd gens just look down right mean flat black.

We painted it with rustoleam(can't spell that)It it starts to chip or rust through we have about 13 cans of flat black to touch it up with.Yeah all the emblems are rea easy to take off.

That thing looks sick!!

Here is another pic that I took with a guys phone.I would have more but my camera won't work.
