    Default 2.0l bare shell rebuild

    i think its about time i put a project thred on here as i have been building this nova for around 2 years now!

    you will all have to bear with me with the updates as i am not in a rush to finish this project so only work on it a few hours here and there. also i have been using several cameras/phones and have lost some pictures

    this is a first time redtop build so any advice or critasism is very welcome.

    start off with some pics of the almost bare shell because anything before these pics were lost

    Shell looks good, doing it slowly and right is the best way to do it IMO!

    You stripping all the underseal off underneath too?
