It is with great regret that this car is being advertised for sale, I never thought I'd part with this car, but a lack of time and other interests I've made the difficult decision to part with it :cry:
On to the important bits, this car has been a labour of love and has been running, rolling roaded and completed a number of successful trackdays, (Gave Iain's weapon a good run for it's money ;)lol) the only reason it's advertised as unfinished is because there were a few changes and some maintainence that I started, but never got round to finishing. What needs to be done to get it up and running is:
- Fit new brake shoes in rear drums (already got them!)
- Finish wiring in a mk2 GSI dash (Originally built with an aftermarket digital setup, but wasn't much good so reverted to standard clocks!)
- Fit Wilwood Dynalites. Got the callipers and fitting brackets.
Thats about it really and then its good to go.

There is probably a lot more I have forgotten, but I have a folder full of receipts for this car and its been a labour of love. Its by no means a show stopper in immaculate condition, but I have not cut corners with the build, which I documented here http://www.pngclub.com/forum/showthread.php?69036-My-Nova-Build-WIP
I have tried to be as honest as possible. A very capable car that's ripe for development or quite capable of embarrassing some much supposedly quicker cars! lol
As per Forum rules the price is:
£4000.00 ovno (Serious offers considered)
