Nice choice of wheels !

Cheers guys!
Never lost the live as such, been on a 3/4 year waiting list to get the car restored as I only wanted people working on it that know how they come apart as prices for these cars have gone nuts now along with the parts!.
It's stage 3 now with rs500 intercooler and .55 T34 hybrid so about 340hp, nothing special but much over that and you risk the gearbox and diffs.
I didn't have a 1.6 16v nova, I had the let nova on autronic and T3 garret : ).
As well as painted the car is having new looms and loads of other bits so it will be delivered back with an mot.

Who painted the car? anyone i might know?
Glad to see you're still slowly working on it.

[dan16v]

Guy called Dave Pritchard Benn, mostly does RS stuff, Bristol way.
I have no garage at home for the moment so can't work on it myself.

[Benn]

Ah nice, looks like a great job. Thought you had a nice double garage at your place... or have you moved again? Thought you where in No mans land now...

[dan16v]

Had double garage at the old house, since moving I have no garage, will sort something soon as it's a right pain.
The nova going ok?

[Benn]

Ah ok, amazed you moved then..

Yeah Nova is all good. Wrapped up for winter mods.

Love the car it was fords latest best car, all the newer stuff is junk

Stunning been following the thread over on the escort forum best colour and best wheels. Imagine the paint is spot on after daves worked his magic on it.

Hope so! Dave is a top bloke and ideal as he can do the mechanical side of things also, should come back with an mot so ready to use.
Had a few extras like ap paddle clutch and hydraulic clutch conversion to make it drive abit more modern
