Council block specials.....
well seeing as ive been on here for about 3 years or so i thought it be about time i posted a build thread of this years rust bucket nova, brought from chris gsi, and has been i the garage for about a month now, i set to work by changing the valve stems as it had a puff or 2 , and later on this year, the small dents, and bit of rust in the door will be sorted ,ill post a few pics of past novas, as ive just leant how to post pictures , and then take it from there on the build!!
we start with a nova turbo, also know to you as the axe wagon, sold on, and was last seen in ireland..
after this was sold, i had a few renault 5 gt turbos, then an e30 bmw cab, but got bored , sold up and brought this one from erine from here, did a bit of work on this car, a bit of paint, headgasket, and ragged the living s*it out of it at a few track days, but lack of fund ment i had to sell up to start me own buisness up....
well after selling up and starting my own business, i had some change left over, and took a trip across the country to pick this up, progress will be slow, but want it ready for next year, and a good ragging round a few tracks, there are no plans to make it road legal as its to easy to get nicked, just a few pics of her as she sits now, and will update as work begins, head has been off with new valve stems, cam belt, headgasket and oil and filter etc already on, she fired up first time tonight, and would like to say a big thank you to paul from here for all the help and advice!!!...
all comments welcome!!!, and hope to see the rest of you track day nutters around next year
