Hi everyone! We're hard at work trying to keep our community clean, so if you see any spam, please report it here and we'll review ASAP! Thanks a million!
We'd be lying if we didn't say that it was the extremely eye-catching combination of PPG Blue Haven paint with a red leather interior that first brought us over to Auto Metal Direct's (AMD) '71 Nova. The idea seems odd at first, but the execution is awesome. It's still rare, but we love it when guys step out of the box with their color palettes. We'd love for that to become more of a trend. The part of AMD's Nova that really got us though was the subtle parts swapping between generations of Novas that at first had us unsure of what year the car actually was. It's one of the most timeless trends in hot rodding, but it's also still one of the best. The most obvious swap here is the '69 SS grille, chosen for the cleaner centersection, but paired with a '70 bumper for clear turn signals rather than amber. AMD also shaved the side marker lights, something all '68-74 Novas had, and swapped on a '69 taillight panel for the smaller taillights. The interior holds our very favorite generational swap though: a '67 Nova dash and instrument cluster with a deleted dashpad. Amazingly, the swap actually looks more appropriate with the stock '71 interior than the original dash.
