    Default my nova build

    after 6 months of rebuilding my car, my engine packet'd in, due to sand from my rocker cover (never have them sand blasted )

    so over past couple of weeks me and my uncle have been rebuilding her

    pics below

    removed the bonnet and other little bits, now whipping it out







    and its out



    got gearbox off and give it a good going over with wire brush and after 4 hours



    sump was the next thing to clean up

    If you look at one of the top pics you can make out what looks like a manifold for bike carbs! Or Trumpets!
