Motorcycle Engine into my Nova

Possibly this...?

How wide are you going on the arches? Staying traditional box design?

Jezz (Toymex on the Forum) has very kindly loaned me the moulds which he used to make the arches for his car

Nice kit!

I need to make decision on arches on mine at some point, but its that bit more challenging being a saloon!

Yes, I always like the way Jezz's Nova looked, very aggressive with those extra wide arches. And the rear ones should be just about perfect for the 70" track that my car will have.

Saloon bodywork is a complication, but I'm sure I've seen wide-arched saloons before? Although they may have just had the hatchback arches grafted on I guess.

Colin on your turbo engine where are you getting the oil feed from bud

Its a cool kit indeed! Me rear is also about 70?, think the front a touch narrower. There are a handful of widened saloons I?ve seen pics of and they use box hatch arches. They just don?t seem to flow right. I think round will need to be the way to go.

What are your thoughts on using fibreglass vs metal?

If yours is going on the road then I'd go with metal if at all possible. I've had fibreglass and carbon fibre on many different cars and it just doesn't stand up well to the rough and tumble of real-life.
