Just Wondering If Anyone Had Seen Or Done One In Pt Style?

I did a red 76 a long time ago for a guy but I never scanned it in. Who knows, maybe he's a member and will post it.

Guess I'm not much help....sorry.

I did one for PHR's "9 cars" article but it didn't make the final cut. Never finished it completely though. I believe it was a 76 as well.

So what would it take to get it finished? Need some help in the front bumper/grill area. Please let me know what you think.

Has anyone ever seen a rendering of a 4th gen? The only thing that comes to mind is one of those glitter iron-on t shirts from the early 80's or late 70's. I wish i was better at art-I'd try. Any help would make my year !

i built this for my dad. he had several of them when i was growing up in the early 80's. he painted a '75 SS orange with the black hood and deck stripes that was my personal favorite it belonged to his freind.i like these novas and i would definetly love to do a pt project with my dad based on the model i built.
i would do a two tone paint scheme with a real low mean stance.
anyway i hope the pics stir up some ideas for you guys.
fyi the engine is a 396 out of a camaro kit i had laying around with some aftermarket wheels from a local hobby shop.

i forgot i had this drawing.i did this before i started on the model car to get ideas on what i wanted to do. i know it's nothing like what you see on the forum but like i said earlier just for some ideas it's a good start.

I had a 77 in high school and loved the way it drove stock, saw a lot of P-T potential. I did a drawing way back of a 79 with the square headlights. It was black with royal blue "torn" scallops and dropped on 17's. It wasn't very good back then but I'll see if I can dig it up and maybe re-draw it.

After owning a 65 Nova, several 73 and 74 Novas, and the 77, I'd say the disco cars (75 +) were by far a better choice for a good handling X body. I'm surprised more folks don't build them. I had a friend that had a 79 beater and junked it. Before he did I had him grab the front clip off for me so I could pick up any 75-78 car and switch to the square headlights only offered in 79. Been collecting dust in the garage for several years, someday I'm gonna build a g-machine disco, someday...
