Found my old Nova!!!

[The Simps]

Long story short, Wayne the current owner got in contact with James (who I sold it to) who in turn passed on my number! The car looks well cared for and is basically how it was when James sold it bar a few upgrades. Will post some of the pics he sent me a little later when I'm home.

Wayne seems a top bloke which is good to know but did say he was thinking of selling it so if he does I need to make sure it makes it's way to another good home! lol

Always liked your old nova mate. Good to see its still being looked after.

My mate sold his xe nova about 6 years ago then it came up for sale on eBay about a month ago in the same great condition. Strange isn't it, it's like seeing an old friend who's doing well.

[The Simps]

Amen! Just glad I don't having room or I'd be tempted to buy it! Lol

I have fk 15mm adapters for those wheels, I also have polished 928's the same as the simps old nova above, they have a 25mm adapter. Iv only just ordered them from a guy in Latvia. Iv not received them yet so I can't tell you the quality but the guy seems fine and they're very well priced. If your interested pm me and I'll give you his e-mail. He can make any adapter you want.

[shaunboy84]

cheers mate nice one :) :)

Arnt the 8 inch wide? at the D90s, impressed with the tuck you've got, looks fantastic.

The d90's are only 6 inch wide et52.5 with a 15 mm spacer, it took me ages to get 4 6's as they're usually staggered I had to buy 2 pairs of 6's. The 928's iv bought are all 7 inches wide et65 with stretch tyres but they don't clear my coilovers with the 15mm spacers so iv had to order more spacers

the car is super low with avo adjustables all round, iv since raised it a little because it had to sit higher at the front due to the wheels it just didn't look right.

Ill be putting some pictures up over the next week or so see what wheels people think look best, also my van is pretty much complete now so I'll chuck a few up of what I have of the build.

Sorry to to hijack your thread with my own ****e simps.

[Benn]

6 inch wide? Nice, didn't know they came that size. Good find and buy they look great.

lol I'm sat here facepalming. Good mates with Wayne. Him and his business partner Stuart did a lot of work on mine. Never made the connection!! But it ha s changed since you sold it. He certainly looks after it. Being a painter by trade helps!

[The Simps]

This car is now up for sale! Will put helping him put an add up for sale over the next few days!

[dan16v]

Still looks good mate! You should buy it back and scrap the project?!

[Benn]
