    Default My SRi project

    Hey guys.. Thought I would start a wee project thread on here.

    Been a member on here for a while looking for a good example nova and eventually found one on here.

    It is a Breeze Blue SRi with original engine.

    So after getting my old man to have a wee peak at it's he was working in Bristol.. I flew down to London and collected. After a brief chat and usual business I got back on the road towards Glasgow.

    I have drove the M6 many times in many different cars but I don't think any have been as much fun as the wee Nova ! She drove the whole way home without missing a beat!! Only had to stop to fill her back up with juice.

    anyways not bore yous too much. Here's a few pictures of the car and what I have done so far.

    Heres a few pictures.

    just got it home.


    Few at work.

    Had a bit of time at the weekend so I thought I would get the machine polisher out and try and restore the colour ! Not a lot of pictures during as I was tuned in
