The Nova was Chevy's compact car until the Vega arrived in the early 70's.It was a cheaper way to get into a Muscle car then a Chevelle or other more expensive cars.I really like the way these Nova's look too,especially the 2dr.This AMT kit can be built one of two ways,stock or strip.It's a pretty easy build, I would recommend this this kit to model builders of any skill level.
