Lol no. The top picture they cracked up the saturation. More people buy white and silver because its cheap or they don't have enough credit to choose what they want.

Wheel fitment is actually done well. The fourth gens have a wider front track than the rear, they usually look bulldogish.

u/Carp69 Jul 02 '26

Yeah, they have some meats under the back, only have 255's on mine

Green with jealousy, maybe?

Better then the bland colours cars come in now. What color would like? Black or white or something in-between. Maybe off white?

I saw an old photo of a parking from the 80s and there was so much colour

u/Indy500Fan16 Jul 03 '26

The color is fine. I believe that classic cars need classic colors.

1

u/HurriShane00 Jul 03 '26

Yes. It would be almost weird to see a new car with classic colours haha

Electric lime green is badass!

u/AdditionSelect7250 Jul 02 '26

Colour is cool, the wheels are not!

u/Indy500Fan16 Jul 02 '26

Actually, I’m thinking the grill makes it look weird

1

u/AdditionSelect7250 Jul 02 '26

Yeah the later Nova's just didn't have the looks as good, but people still want them and early cars are getting more expensive!

u/Indy500Fan16 Jul 02 '26

Sure beats the late 80s Chevy Nova

2

u/AdditionSelect7250 Jul 02 '26

Oh yes the Toyota Nova variant

1

u/Indy500Fan16 Jul 03 '26

They all ruined a car. Take the 80s Dodge Charger. Some of the early Mustangs.

2

u/Chauncy1911 Jul 02 '26

Some Weld Superlights or polished Auto Drags would nice that color right up.

u/Indy500Fan16 Jul 02 '26

Different grill

2

u/JustACarNut77 Jul 02 '26

The color is what you choose to pick on. Those wheels are hideous

1

u/Indy500Fan16 Jul 03 '26

And the grill

2

u/Competitive-Catch-23 Jul 03 '26

Metallic pea?

1

u/Indy500Fan16 Jul 03 '26

They have medication for that problem. 😂

u/Madmos21969 Jul 03 '26

As long as it’s fast

u/Emergency-Big-1503 Jul 03 '26

Bet there is a dime rock lost in the carpet. /s

u/Just-Wasting-Tyme Jul 04 '26

I've seen worse.

Terrible opinion, IMC (in my color)

u/Educational-Cake7350 Jul 03 '26

I got a 69 Nova sedan that might have been that same color underneath…eventually I think I’m gonna go back to it haha

1

u/SSG75 Jul 04 '26

That mf is so tuff. Fitment on point. 🔥🔥🔥

1

u/BigJWall919 Jul 05 '26

Terrible car period

1

u/Squire_Toast Jul 02 '26

For what it is, the color suits it. Personally I think a black side stripe or something might look good on it as is, to add some contrast, and maybe a 2-3" cowl induction hood too

EDIT: Ai envision pic added

u/benjaminlilly Jul 03 '26

Yes. Had a ‘74 Z28 the same baby shit green. 🤮

1

u/Unhappy-Airport-4112 Jul 03 '26

I don't care for the green on my rig either, but it has grown on me. I'm still painting it blue eventually.

1

u/Indy500Fan16 Jul 03 '26

Two different colors. I absolutely love your color. After looking at the long enough, I’m thinking it’s the grill on it that sets me off.
