PICS 1963 Chevy Nova hand made prototype.
Here are some pictures of the first hand made 1963 Chevy Nova prototypes.
Being only hand made volume study models, they have issues that need to be fixed, but the idea is there. The rims diameter needs to be a little bigger. Of course the license plate will be period-correct. Critics are more than welcome!
Have a great weekend! Sergio

Really beautiful! Any chance of SS badging and trim and slanted rear antenna?
Zounds! Those are good looking models!!

+1 very nice but please add SS trim and badging; including the silver inlay trunk lid panel surrounding the tail lights. This feature really makes this car a beauty IMO.
These look great but fix those tires.

THIS is going to be a winner. Bigtime!
I have one suggestion.
Please revise the ribbed rocker panel molding so that it fits closer to the body (if that makes sense). Looking at pics of numerous real cars, it seems less prominent. And of course this could simply be a paint and / or plating thickness issue on the prototype.
I have never cared for the Nova but these look good enough to encourage me to buy one.
Thank you, Mr. Goldvarg, for bringing such a quality product to market.
Amazing!
+2 ... and possibly a chrome gas cap
color choice perfect and don t forget the convertible
Great colors, especially since interior choices included two-toned light and darker tans, and a medium-ish green. Black was also available, but the lighter choices would be ideal to view all your fine details.
I think it needs to be an SS to have bucket seats. Had different dash,too
As far as I know the replacement gas caps could have been chrome.
The originals were body color.
