1966 Chevy Nova Pro Street

I love this kit i have ordered many it is a very cool kit lots of fun not much flash on the body which is nice this kit for me went together very well and easy it has a lot of detail which from my experiences is surprising usually for me AMT'S run me a lot of problems have a lot of flash and are hard to work with over all but this one was not like that made me think i was building a revell kit rather then an AMT kit the only thing i don't like about this kit is that the body and chassis are molded in a ugly blue but you can change the paint on it obviously there are so many different ways you could build this kit its just you would have to bash kits as this kit is meant to be built as it shows on the box rather then a 2 in 1 kit but other then it is really good and a lot of ways you could build this kit PROS: detailed kit, comes with and engine stand and an engine block, it fits together well CONS: A little bit of flash, Its molded in a ugly blue in my opinion i think everyone should have one of these kits in there collection as it is a really cool kit to build and has a good amount of detail and looks good on the shelf i highly recommend this to people but first make sure you have a little more experience then a beginner at skill level 2's

There is quite a bit of flash to take care of, but it wasn't too much of a issue. Nothing was warped too badly but I had to bend some plastic to fit. These issues are not prominent when you look at it. There isn't much detail underneath the car, but there is a good amount of it under the hood. Some decals will definitely spruce the car up a bit, but the paint job is the most important. I actually used automotive lacquer paint on this (with a lacquer primer of course) to get the gloss look I wanted. The paint job looks amazing after the effort.

From the pictures submitted by others I see they had better luck than I did. My previous experience with AMT models has been disappointing. This Nova had lots of flash to trim. The windshield was warped and would not lay on the area where it was supposed to. It took a lot of prying to get the body to mount to the chassis. Not much detail like Revell models have. I'll not buy an AMT model again.
