How come the tires are so tiny? Even with unrealistic tire sizes, it only lets me get 135/80R15 when the tires are 120/80R15. Not gamebreaking, just curious. Aren't the standard tires on a 1969 Chevrolet Nova 205/70R14?

You can't

I understand, but if I want to make it bigger, how can I do it? Well, so to speak, the size seems right, it just doesn't seems "tall enough".
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 26. mar. 2021 kl. 14:31 
It's a 1:1 scale,
Eman 26. mar. 2021 kl. 13:20 
@chassegallerie they're a smallish car.
chassegallerie 26. mar. 2021 kl. 13:17 
The car is nice, but it seems WAY too small. Is there a way to scale it up?
LaPanthere 4. jan. 2021 kl. 19:45 
The Car is nice, but come on - starting price at auction more than $9 (NINE) MILLION for a wreck? Joke of the day lol :D (I put a screenshot, was the first time I seen one since I subscribed, but.... no way)

Son of a monkey butt, I'll be darned, you're right. I could of swore Nova maintained the look of the earlier 60's up till 70 but, I's wrong. Didn't realize my 73 looked so much the same as the '69. My bad!
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 22. nov. 2020 kl. 12:03 
No it is infact a 69 nova, 73 had a re designed front end. Gm used with same body for the nova from 68 to 72 with minor differences in the front bumper and headlights.
Mardoin69 22. nov. 2020 kl. 8:48 
Also, came with an economy V8 version....with a 305 cu.in . motor.

Just an FYI, this is actually a 1973 Chevy Nova. Came with an Inline 6 cyl. or 350 cu.in . (5.7L) engine--which would be a SS version. This was actually my first car. I worked for two summers saving up and bought it from one of my Dad's friends when I turned 16. Got it for $2,500 because it had a dent in rear quarter panel which I fixed in body shop at our high school tech center. They were infamous for having a softer metal camshaft that wore too quick and caused the points to need adjusted and replaced way too frequently. The previous few years had the rear R&L body windows that came to a point at the top instead of squared off like this one. They went back to that sharp point in the years after the 73 as well. So, if I remember right, only 73 & 74 had this type window.

Thanks.Chevy Nova is my favourite car :)

I feel like that there is stated very well, and thank you for the understanding and support

Not a problem. I also find it very frustrating searching for answers in discussions that get bogged down with too many people asking the same thing, which in the end hides the one comment that gives the answer. The oil pan height was an easy fix too - I just went into editor and raised the motor enough so it didn't go through the hood, and then tweaked the driveshaft to line up again.... and I like the car so much I even fitted a W12 to a version - simply because it's a great model to work with.:steamhappy:

As with all free cars, they are made because the designers enjoy doing it. When people start complaining that things need fixing, they forget that the designer isn't paid, and owes the people who download it nothing. The fact that designers and content providers do give help (for free!) for thew things they give us (for free!) is commendable.
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 5. juni 2020 kl. 12:16 
I thank you extremely for stating this, if I could pin that msg I could, I actually just add it to the description when. I get a chance

Top motor from @Dodgecharger . For those that don't read the comments for instructions, there are two main problems people seem to have (Three, if you include the lack of patience to read through the comments to find answers instead of just asking again and again...):steammocking:

Front End: This is the little strip that fits just under the front of the hood, just above the grill. It has a very small focus spot to fit it, but it is there.

Left Tail light C (the NOS box in the interior): Simplest way to fit it is to buy a standard rear window (no cage), fit that, and then the NOS / Tail light is easy to select and fit. Then just take out the rear window and put back the one with the roll cage. Note: Apparently there is a way to crouch with the doors open to fit it at a very particular angle, but I couldn't find the sweet spot, so I used the windscreen method.

Brilliant car!

Heya @dodgecharger i took in a twin turbo car as a customer order, but i cannot find the front end to reinstall, any ideas on how to find it?
NightNugget03 4. maj 2020 kl. 9:38 
the oil pan ism under ground how do i stop that
O.G.Cobra 26. apr. 2020 kl. 6:47 
How do you create a custom car and not know how to reinstall parts!! As much as I hated to do it, cuz i love cars like this.. Delete the car from your inventory, it helped me.
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 25. apr. 2020 kl. 18:27 
not a clue
willibphx 25. apr. 2020 kl. 16:30 
Got the Nova as customer call and needed to replace the air filter, accidently removed all of the air filter parts and now it wont let me complete the car. It originally had a custom air filter but only the standard filter is in my inventory. When I install it says the car is incomplete and I cant get rid of the car. Went to the custom shop and bought the custom air filter but it wont let me install it. Any ideas?

why dose the title say ss nova when you talking about dodge charger i'm having issue with the left trunk light to install on the pro street mod
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 8. mar. 2020 kl. 7:01 
I manually changed a few versions myself to make it harder to find
david 7. mar. 2020 kl. 9:08 
@DodgeCharger I think you've misunderstood my point. The uniqueMod= value does not change from what you've assigned to it with your latest upload, unless manually changed by the user. I didn't change that value, only added it to Salon to find it quickly.

This car new in Salon costs $210,131 with uniqueMod=1.993 that you've assigned to it. So $14,000,000 for it in a barn is definitely a glitch with this setting. Would need uniqueMod=25.0 or so to be $14 million in Salon, and even higher to be that much in a barn. :)
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 7. mar. 2020 kl. 5:11 
It's not a glitch, the unique mod was originally intended for changing the price of the car to higher or lower, but we've found that higher the number the rarer car will spawn. It's not a glitch just has a has a higher unique mod number
david 7. mar. 2020 kl. 1:36 
For what it's worth, I changed the value to uniqueMod=21.993 and went back to garage. The car is now worth 9,957,991. So $14mil is definitely a glitch. :)
david 7. mar. 2020 kl. 1:30 
$14million has to be a glitch. I just bought one at Salon for $210,131.

The value of cars is set in the config file under [8_logic], uniqueMod=*.*. The default value is 1.0 which for most cars is between 15k-30k when new. As DodgeChargers said, the older and more rare, the higher the calculated value. This car is set to uniqueMod=1.993 which should double the value and did so for me, assuming it's worth $110,000 by default.

We can change that value to anything we want to, for example, buy cheap (default uniqueMod= value) and sell for more for quick profit (by increasing the uniqueMod= to a much higher number - I've found uniqueMod=20 to 30 to be realistic and put unique cars at around the $14mil mark).

Unfortunately we have to change locations for the edited and saved config file to reload - meaning it's highly unlikely to be there again soon. The more cars/mods we have, the less likely to find what we're looking for with the game's random spawning. :)
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 6. mar. 2020 kl. 9:30 
It's how the games mechanics work, rarer the car the more expensive and vice versa
tatt2lvr35 6. mar. 2020 kl. 8:04 
whats with the price? finally find one in the barn and the purchase price is 14 mil. im playing reg game so i had to work to get my cash and do not have that kind of money lol.
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 1. feb. 2020 kl. 14:11 
Idk, I don't really like that car to much

DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 25. jan. 2020 kl. 7:20 
Thank you,
Rebrall 25. jan. 2020 kl. 2:45 
Ye id leave it at the end of the day you buy one rear window without the roll cage and your set for any future Nova's you do, its a shame a few other's didn't think outside of the box it would save them a wasted comment :steamhappy: also you did a fantastic job with the car
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 24. jan. 2020 kl. 4:34 
If that's what works, that's great, I have another option to try and fix it but it may screw some things up so Idk, if I want to risk it
Rebrall 24. jan. 2020 kl. 1:27 
@dodgecharger, the easier way to get around the issue is to install a standard rear window and then install the tail light be the remove the standard one and install roll cage version, yes it means buying an extra window but the cost bugger all, hope that helps all those possibly still having issues with it
xKilroyx 13. nov. 2019 kl. 0:11 
Awesome car!
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 29. okt. 2019 kl. 8:51 
i love the car just without the physical fbx files i cant delete it but i can inside the game, i forgot i could do that
O.G.Cobra 29. okt. 2019 kl. 8:38 
Sounds good. I see a lot of comments on this, so obviously people like this car. I myself love it! I love muscle cars
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 28. okt. 2019 kl. 20:19 
i think theres something i can try, just to ween out the annoyance, ima just remove the part from the car.
O.G.Cobra 28. okt. 2019 kl. 14:16 
Thanks for the response, but I unsubscribed it the day i left the comment. After reading all the comments
DodgeCharger  [ophavsmand] 28. okt. 2019 kl. 3:29 
How many times am I gonna have to say it, there's a specific angle to have to get it from either the drive or passenger open and crouched, even if there was an issue I couldn't fix it as I no longer have files
O.G.Cobra 8. sep. 2019 kl. 12:46 
@Weedform Im having the same issue. I cannot finish the car until that part is put back in.. Can we get a response please!
Weedform 3. aug. 2019 kl. 19:41 
how do I reinstall the Trunk Tailight C( NOS Tanks)? Got it as a work order, and it wont let me finish and remove the vehicle from the shop until that part is reinstalled

PokeyMom 11. juli 2019 kl. 23:31 
Anybody else figure out what angle is needed to get the NOS into the car?
