The conversion is coming on nicely now. Scotts shell is probably the most rot free nova we have worked on, pretty mucg all the seems are free of rust.

Me, Rob and Andy spent the weekend preping the car for the new engine, which i am having rebuilt at the mo. Took the engine out friday and welded the HH kit in saturday and sunday, top work by master welder Rob :wink:

The engine bay is being smothed and sprayed tomorrow by the best, mr ade culley so it should look mint.

Then its friday and saturday to fit the fresh engine in and off we go one new valver.

Yes scott, just need to come and get the cv joints. I will come over tomorrow to pick the joints up we can use, we will need to buy 1 outer joint and thats it. May need some cv boots, depends on the condition of the ones off the astra.

Will allso get all the other bits you have got.

Looking forward to finishing it now mate, hope it all goes well at the weekend.

Ready for us to build the engine back up and put it Friday and Saturday. We've got plenty of pictures of the Work in Progress. Should look mint when it's done!
