I have a 1986, (well, Nov. '85) Chevrolet Nova. As I have heard and seen, a load of my buddies are starting with V8's.
Scott B. with a '74 Trans-Am
Scott M. with a 70 Chevelle 396
Matt S. with a '69 Torino with a 390. There are more, but I won't ever get to the point. With these facts in place, I want to create a stunner of a car. Something that will get loads of attention. In other words, I want to go retro.

Hugger Orange Paint/ Tuxedo Black Striping
5 Spoke Mag Wheels
Dual Exhaust Tips
1970 "SS" Badging
Lee's Turbo Radial Tires
1970 Style Gauges

Please Feel free to give an idea.
 
I'd take grabber orange (never heard of 'hugger orange') and have a black hood stripe (as opposed to full body stripes) and black rear minispoiler for starters :)
 
No spoiler, I want this baby to be as close to it's musclecar heritge as possible. Hugger Orange came on most Chevrolets in 1969-'70

I want striping like that. Orange base, with the black stripes on the sides.
