Well as I get my bonus from work soon I'll have some money to play with and thort about finishing my nova off, but want to add a few things to make it unique,
Wheels?(I love bandee's but don't want to be common)
Interior bits and bobs.

Got a few hits like a plough, electric mirrors etc

How it looks present-

Spend the cash to make sure it runs perfect and won't need anything for its next mot,

Sounds boring but you might be skint next year

Interior desperately needs sorting, hopefully going to get dash flocked and door cards re-trimmed. Don't need too much work.

Im not a fan of the wheels personally, hence the wanting a change. Just after a few ideas

pete, you should know by now that on PNG, we all just plough our own furrow when it comes to our car's styling..

do what you want to it, just do it well.. there's some lovely bumpers on the bay (see club chat) and you'll see what i mean..... lol

like bazil said, make her run right & get her legal first, then pretty much everything else can be done as a rolling project.

ps. have you still got my polisher? i might attempt to polish mine before the shows this year......

i would get a crap grey dash to flock instead of flocking the brown one

with the rest of the interior, i reckon you should get the dash in black.

I do still have it mike, down at my mothers but if you just drop me a pm if you want to come get it.
I'm in no rush to get it done, but just after few unique tweaks for it and some rare parts :)

I dont think the dash is anything speical Burgo, just an early brown one.

+ mike as said, either get it flocked and I've asked the lad who started the thread about his black dash how much he wants for that so shall await and see.

which are more desirable and sellable than the grey ones. what about a blue interior?

Well the dash has a few problems, centre console has broke of its clips, and around the glovebox handle is shattered but I have grey bits to put on.

And what blue? Carpet, thort about doing a,b,c pillars in blue faux suede?

cards, dash, piller trims all of it. my estate used to be the same colour as yours and had the blue interior

Pete

Got any pictures? Never seen the blue dash before.

I'm not a fan of the door cards in blue hence I'm getting some trimmed but the pillars sound a good idea if I could come by them.

Not the biggest fan but if I came across I'd have them.

You got any pics of the car in general Burgo? Not seen a nova in the same colour as mine yet
EDIT: ignore me, it's the estate proj. You know what the actual colour is?
