Thought it was about time I put some pics up of my Nova.
Just a bit of background. This is a car I first bought it in 92 but ended up selling in the mid 90's. I then noticed it for sale a couple of years later so ended up buying it back & I have owned it since. It was then used up until 2001 (tax disk in car expired in April 2001). It was left on my parents drive for about a year but someone tried pinching it so i got a lock up for it which is where it has been until now.
This was it when I first decided it was time to do something with it after best part of 10 years in storage.

I brought it back home & as the pics show it was badly faded in places.

After a couple of hours with a buffer I managed to get a decent shine on it.

It looks ok in the pics but unfortunately rust has set in, so will all need sorting. The engine turns over but as yet I have not been able to get it running.
Once I have sorted this I also have a Yellow SR that I have owned since the late 90's & that was also last used around 2000.
I will get some more pics up as I go along
Cheers
