and some smaller tyres :thumb:

Looks a clean enough base to start with. I always regretted not buying a red nova, can look really nice.

yeah it defo has to be lowered bit wobbly round corners need a back window first :) would like some gsi skirts but for now i think ill just tidy it up a bit and improve the handling and power then once im happy whack all my moneys in to the body and interior. will be looking for some recaro leather seats if i can get them to fit. i'll start a build story on my laptop untill its finished and then upload the lot at once for you all.

Just remember you can only post up to 15 images at a time per post.
That includes smilies.

that sucks a bit. ill have to make part 1 part 2 ect... when its done. nova parts are rather cheap 40mm springs on ebay for £40 not bad

No you got it wrong...
When you make a post in your thread you can post 15 images per post so if you have more than 15 image links just put them in the next post.
Just trying to save you copying sh1t loads of links into 1 post then having to copy them again and count them lol.

what does IMO mean? and im not to sure i think the red and black looks ok because the interior is the same but then again i do like silver more. i want to get sportstar alloys by irmscher (bad spelling i think) over spray on lights????? didnt spot that. arnt alot of people looking for the cav fanblades on here? i should get it all tidy before billing this year. the engine is being cleaned and polished tomoz i get a couple of pics up of the engine tomoz for everyone. ow i forgot to mention the millage is 1300 miles yes thats right only 1300 miles guess its been round the clock 2 or 3 times tho :( on the mot its logged as 435 miles

Na it comes in next weeks mag i think lol.

should be getting a new boot lid with window from scrapy monday for £40 otherwise its £60 for the window to be replaced. might just change the window myself when i get the boot lid only held in with no more nails and rubber.

Theyre only held in by the rubber, theres no sealant on the rear screen bud, surely you can get a glass for cheaper than a tailgate?

im not sure i have looked around kidderminster the scrap yards want £40 for the boot lid with window auto glass want my insurance excess of £60 and a place in birmingham wants £105 including fitting. not sure where else to look.

Try a local scrap yard mate! fitting its not too hard if your careful! And it will save you some pennies!! Looks good apart from not being a fan of the wheels!! The tyres have a toooo big profile for the hight of the car and the black is too dark for the red....silver would look good!

ill have a look around for a new window cheers. the wheels have started to grow on me i still want sportstar alloys tho. im gunna go for the silver as the engine is being cleaned now. i have some pic's ill post up now. lol the tyres yeah they are toooo big trying to get over spray off the rear lights is not easy. been scrubing with white spirts but still not having it... :(
