    Good luck with the project mate, any Nova is cheap at ?50!

    Yeah, it's a 4 cylinder. The exhaust manifold only has 3 branches which is why some think it's 3 cylinders.

    Count the leads on the distributor cap.

    They should do, have just sent them off to be refurbished by a good friend of mine, want to try and have the tyre stretched over the rim like a euro look but not sure what tyre size to use

    Managed to make some progresss and found this!
    these need attention!




    have ditched the rage bucket seats but dont know what other ones to use at the minute, started to pull the 1 litre out


    got it out and this is what the bay looked like, bit of surface rust but all in all not too bad


    then set about welding the harry hockley kit with the help of my friend



    inner chassis leg done

    not too bad for a days work, bay will be getting finished tomorrow and then sprayed black, ready for the v6!
