For some time in the future i would like to back date a 1972 Chevelle SS to a 71 ( I had acouple of this quite a few years ago.1:1s) and will probly build it like the second one i had,that never got finished and ended up selling it......... Heres the turn signals i back dated..... ( Using HO Scale 0.28 x 0.56 mm strips) Top one is finished all detailed up,bottom one just has the strips on it to show what it looked like.......   |

That was a great choice for the hood. I got one of the -88's for the 76-79 Nova for a future build. Have you decided what style you are going to build this? Streetmachine, prostreet, or stock? Virgil |
