Well jealous! I gotta soft spot for White mk1 novas:)

[NOVABOY8]

just bought a other nova for a run a round mk1 in blue.
i got to start doing a bit on the white nova havent had time becasue of work

[Iain]

Could have at least removed the cable tidy, bonnet stay rubber, latch spring etc before primering it...

[Benn]

I agree^ And even more so the rubber gromits as they just push out, like the cables do.


Nice clean seams in the end bay tho.

[LEWI007]

Prep looks good but also agree some of the parts should of been removed.

Itll still look good when painted and built back up though, just it wont look as good as other cars where people have removed every little piece and got them perfect.

Crack on boy ;)

[NovaBoi92]

dave... this has gotta be at least the 50th nova? lol you love em hahahaha seen my new one?

[NOVABOY8]

i with change the rubber gromit and latch spring to other ones
