Pauls Nova Turbo Rebuild

[Paul]

Got one of the quarters welded on tonight, and for a pattern part they fit suprisingly well, nigh on perfect!

Pics to follow maybe tomorrow, too tired to upload them now.

Plans are more sanding this weekend, then back on the quarters on tuesday!

Thanks for the comments,

Paul

Update time:

Right so following on from the last update, I have been fairly busy (well my mate Glen has too!). Its the preparation as you know which takes time to get it all done perfect, so theres no imperfections which there will be as its a god dam Nova!

Anyway, last time the rear quarters were placed on, theyve since been cut in:



Then tacked on:




Then completely wedled on:
