Default Re: Nova Help NEEDED PLEASE!

The only years I have are 2008 and part of 09. I'm a little slow with the subscription this year.

I am looking for pictures of how the black was sprayed on. Particularly inside the door jams.

I am also looking for all of the various clips that hold the dekuxe trim on above the rocker panel moldings. I know that there were trim rivets on the door and quarter. The fender had 3 bolt on fasteners. I only have one of the clips for the rear rocker extension molding. I could take a picture of that if you'd like?

Thanks again.

Hi all, I am hoping someone can help me out. I have a 69 Nova SS L78 that I am restoring. I am ready to paint the rockers and I have been searching the web for picture, articles, or anything to help me figure out how to do it. I came across the questions in this thread asking what I need to ask:

"I am looking for any detailed pictures of a 68-72 Nova with the deluxe rocker trim moldings. I am looking for pictures of how the black was sprayed on. Particularly inside the door jams. I am also looking for all of the various clips that hold the deluxe trim on above the rocker panel moldings. I know that there were trim rivets on the door and quarter. The fender had 3 bolt on fasteners. I only have one of the clips for the rear rocker extension molding. I could take a picture of that if you'd like?"

The quarters were replaced 25 years ago and I have no idea exactly where the two trim pieces behind the rear tire go or how they were fastened (without guessing). Close up pictures would help. This along with the answers to the questions ask above would be great.

I would appreciate any advice or pictures you could e-mail or text me.

Thank you

The M 3 means there are 3 exterior trim options....most likely brite window trim and the rocker package...if you send me an email I can help you with the info you are looking for. [email protected]

I want to give a big thanks to Tom W and Wayne Bushey. Wayne was able to supply me with the 2005 article on exactly how an original car had the black lower body painted. I painted mine and it turned out nice. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/youguysrock.gif[/img]

Ken...Wayne did the article based on my 68 Butternut Yellow BB car. We added the brite window moldings and rocker trim with blackout...he documented the process and then featured it in Nova Times.

I'll post a photo when I can dig one up.
