Very nice buy. Doors look very good.

A temporary solution to instrumentation, as I am still waiting for SBD to tell me that the new MBE digital display is ready for me........so back to analogue for the moment;



Also just arrived is a 3J Driveline plate LSD, photos to follow.

This replaces the Tran-X LSD's and Quaife ATB which I have had in various gearboxes over the years. I've heard good things about the 3J LSD, if anyone on here has any personal experience of them (especially in a FWD Vauxhall) then let me know.

Those doors look absolutely brilliant; a little strange they moulded the entire thing perfectly and left off the door handle recesses.

If it was my situation I'd probably revert to a button & catch solution.

They were bespoke-moulded by a guy who makes professional kayaks, who was apparently asked to make them without door handles as the owner was going to use the TVR-style release buttons under the mirrors.

Have you contact details for him Colin ?

Unfortunately not Jezz, the guy I bought the car from didn't have his details.

If I could track him down I would certainly talk to him about making more sets.

That's a shame. I would be up for a pair as my drivers door is a bit second hand thanks to a spinning Caterham !��

You'd think that someone on PNG would know who made them.

There can't be many people who have commissioned a one-off set of Nova carbon doors (from a man who makes kayaks).

Little repair work on the pillars an them doors will be sweet

That nova that was on ebay looks very much like a friends rallycross shell.It was always just sitting around in his workshop but cant remember ever seeing it with the wide arch kit on. I will ask him next time I see him if it was him who got the doors built as he was always going to build a nice nova.
