New Build Pics (look!!)

[krobinson]

Some of you asked for more pics as i build the nova back together. Well this is how far i've got so far (taken this morning) The weathers dull and pants so the paint job doesnt show off its shine very well.. But you get the idea!

Still need to get my dash flocked and fitted, then build the rest of the interior. Also need to get my coilovers, and then fit the engine. So loads to do, i'm gonna take my time and have it ready for early next year!

Ignore the Pug sports club at the bottom of the pics.. this is the uploader i use simply because its easy to use and allows me to link pics!

[NovaNeil]

WOW!!!
That Engine bay looks amazing!
Also love the Vented Wings!
I think some clear rear clusters would look good with that colour???!
Keep up the good work :D

[krobinson]

Yeah i'm thinking about clear rear's with the top half tinted red. Just to be that little bit different!

My next buy has to be full coilovers and fuel tank...

I left the manta mirror covers in with the car when it was getting sprayed but the bodyshop misplaced/lost them. So i'm on the lookout for new covers now :x

Keep up the good work !!!

It has a metal plate welded in between the inner wing and chassie leg, and then its smoothed over with fiberglass to give the main shape. Then its got a final skim of filler to smooth it.


very nice. could do with a slight drop though lol :lol:

lol.. Full Coilovers on the way.. and my old setup is for sale.. Bilstein cup shocks and -80mm springs ?200

Colour = Lagoon Blue, standard colour on Luxe plus nova's, merit plus and some cavalier expression's and SRI's

Flocking, not sure yet, trying to find somewhere who can do it!! I got plenty of time to look!

Respray cost ?2k, but that includes the engine bay work, seam welding, fitting of a few new parts and waxoiling... Expensive but immaculate! Even i'm supprised how good the finish is!

Lookin good dude, Glad to see sum1 spending money on keeping the car mint and modding proper, Better than spending cash on daft bodykits,
One thing... This time, Dont badge it as a gsi... Unless ya put a GSi engine in... Just wouldnt be right on such a nice car...

[Nova-Boy]
