Look if you hate them that much I could take the convo pro's off your hands Allan. As for wheels for your Nova, depends what you have and what you can get, Cragar SS's always look good.....................I'm serious about the convos 69 SS Chevy NOVA Icon_twisted

That's a cool colour, I like it more than the green.
Hope you don't run into any more paint problems.
