Marty, I know it was a little backwards but when the painter has the opening you must take it as you know.

NOMARO soon to be lowered!!!!

I had a guy argue with me saying that Ford never made a 1965 Falcon. When I told him that I in fact own one and it's sitting in my garage, he laughed and insisted I didn't even know what year my car was.

I love it. Looks great. The only thing I don't like is the taillights being that big, but that's my opinion and not worth much..lol but I love it otherwise.

Here the finished rear tail section with the RS billet piece between the tail lights. Maybe this will make it look better to you.

As you can see it needs tires and wheels and lowered which is all being done next. Also the interior will get a set of 69 Camaro front buckets with Black and White Houndstooth and the console horse-shoe shifter. Door panels and the rest of the interior will be stock black.

Stay tune for more updates.

Enjoy....

Im sorry, i love Nova's.... I love Camaro's..... But not together. The front end doesnt go with the rest. But that might be cause im too used to seeing them seperately. Or maybe its too Camaro-esque for the rest of the blend?

Anyway, Your work on the other hand, is WAY up there, attention to detail is superb.

Maybe if i look at it long enough...... Someday i'll get it!!

Nice work still.

I was like you at first, not sure about the look. the 2 separate body lines on the rear quarter through me off, but the more I looked at this project the more I came to really like it.

The execution is definitely superb which makes it nice. I think something that may help it look "more correct" to those that aren't quite seeing it, would have been to use the non RS front end. That way the round headlights are out front like you're expecting to have on a Nova. Just a thought. I like this car and can't wait to see it finished. I love that it has an LT4.

Trey,
Here is a few pictures of the LT4 Engine with the FAST Injection.





The March Pulleys and Brackets I had coated Black with raw Aluminum Alt, PS and AC. Going to leave the Water Pump Raw also.



Enjoy. Ed
