Two of a kind? Not quite. Chip Rhodes’ ’68 Nova SS clone and Donnie Childers’ ’66 Chevelle are as different as they are similar. Different body styles, small block vs. big block, SS vs. non-SS—but, my, there is a family resemblance: pale yellow in color, each with a black vinyl top, black interior and gray five-spoke wheels. Fraternal twins, then?

During the latter part of the 1950s, as America fell into a recession, the American industry machine suffered. The Big Three Detroit automakers felt the hit and quickly began building affordable cars that would appeal to the public.
When the time comes to begin building a new project, the process can often end up going in a different direction. By the time you are finished, the truck you started with can take on a whole new appearance, as if the French built it. That wasn’t going to happen with Rick Parsons’ project.
