These are good books, got them in my own nova library. Would scan them myself, but my scanner died and buying a new one is low on the list of priorities right now.

just as soon as you can manage, I'm wanting to remove the rear chassis legs with as little cutting as possable from a donor shell and put them in my gsi along with a new full boot floor, I don't want to hack into it with a grinder lol.
