Default '69 L78 Nova in process

Bought this car a year ago April from a member on this site. Doing it all in my garage, but the car is leaving soon to go to my paint/bodyman for a few months or so for him to apply the Dover White paint. I have a whole album of photos on Facebook, but here's a few for L78 Nova fans to view:

Thank you all for the comments. I trust my paint job will come out great as the same guy that painted my Impala a couple years ago will be painting the Nova and I am very pleased with his work.

Here is the Impala at a local show with my 5 year old holding the &quot;Best Chevrolet&quot; award that day.

That picture on the trailer with black rims and dog dish caps is how I received the car last year. Those wheels were the wrong size and I have since bought 14x7 wheels and painted them in Dover White, as shown in 4th picture.
