    Default Nova GTE black. Garage find..

    After 4 years of buliding a 200sx ive finallly gone back to Nova!!! i managed to source apretty solid GTE in black identical to one i had when i was younger!!

    It had beeen sat in a garage for about ten years, won it on ebay.

    Grabbed the trade plates from work and drove it 60 miles! no problem at all!!

    so the new project starts here some pics so far.

























    The fuel gauge didnt work this is why...



    Changed loads on it already. needs two wings a side skirt, centre caps and a bloody good clean aahah!! oh and the battery exploded so needs welding which i plan to do saturday!!

    So i dropped the fuel tank got all the **** old fuel out and painted the tank..

    I was watching that on eBay. You got that for a good price. Be nice to follow your progress

    If you can get that rot sorted then you've got a decent buy on your hands as the GTE in black is getting very rare
