lol, I have a nova on the road, i just want my GTE because they look so god damn sexy!

The GTE's taken a lot longer to repair than I first thought, so its being done gradually & working around mine and my dad's work patterns. Long story, but its gunna be a while driving about in the 1.2 for me :lol:
