This car came to our shop for a complete custom interior. It is a really nice 66 Nova built by HOT RODS by ROHRERS in Burlington Kansas. This is not the first car we have had in our shop by Rohrers. Doug and Travis do great work. The fit and finish is excellent.

I will be posting more pictures as the work progresses.

Hey Scott

We recently met your brother Loren. Heard a little about you and would like to meet you too. We seem to ALWAYS be in the shop so anytime you want to stop by would be fine.

More of the basic panels the design will be built upon. It is going well and we are all excited to see the elements take shape.

For those of you who don't know yet, rtrunner is the builder.
You may want to direct your technical build questions to him either on this thread or ask thru private message.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Now that the design is coming to the surface for you to see, I thought it might be good to spend a few minutes giving you the run down on the thinking behind this build.

The theme for this NOVA is to bring back the original design in a fresh new and updated way. The materials are exciting and eye appealing. Black leather, black mesh grills over brushed aluminum and top stitching in charcoal enhance the lines throughout. The body line that runs front to back on the outside is repeated inside to add a strong, bold appearance.

Here are the door panels wrapped in leather. It's really coming together. The headliner is also wrapped but I haven't taken pics yet.

We are getting close. Hope to deliver this one on Monday.
The stereo system is in. Working on the backseat covers now. Then carpet. Will cover the console last.

I like the style.
Looks retro, yet still modern.
Great work !

Yes. Front and back seats from GTO. Had to cut the top of the backs and removed the headrests from the front seats.

These are not the best. It is really dark with all the rain. Will take better ones when we can get it outside.
