Ed told me about the Nomaro on Friday, and it sounded "interesting." Then he showed up with it on Saturday. I can honestly say it looks a lot better when you see it in person....... And I know it will look even better once the car is sitting at proper ride height.

Hats off to Ed for building this. It really is pretty cool when people have the courage to build an imaginary car that someone rendered as a "what-if" concept!

I look forward to seeing this being built.

You may as well get thick skin now because the ridicule will never end. Whatever floats your boat.

I think if you get rid of the vent window, the perspective will start to change. Roger if you can come close to the rendering, it should be a neat project.

Looking forward to seeing it come along.

Well -- you know I'm poking you and Rodger... Just take the money you're going to waste and make a deal for the '62.

It looks like you started with a Ventura. If that's the case niether a Nova or Camaro were harmed during this experiment. I like the rendering but I'm not so sure how its going to look live and in person. I'm rooting for you Ed. I hope it comes out good.

Just thinking out loud here.......

But if you are changing the entire nose, the door skins and the better part of the quarters. Then also putting Camaro taillights in to. Wouldn't it be easier to adapt the Nova roof and trunk to a Camaro?

I still like where this is going though.

.... But the front end bolted on as you see it. Tail lights are easy... and then "just" door skins. Ed's plan sounds easier.

Why the vinyl roof. The car needs a small wing and exhaust out the rockers
