alright all,

finally finished sorting out the back end of the missus yaris, thought that i'd make a start on the nova. got the 3 spokes on the other day and niticed a bit of scrubbing on the horrible mud flaps (was previously owned by and 80 year old) so thought i'd get them off. what do i find greeting me? a bit of surface rot. oh joy!! not bad though, first rot anywhere on her and she's 15 years old. if it was a bit warmer i'd be out there now.

so that to do,
clean up and reseal the floorpan,
1.8 brakes,
40mm drop,
clean her.

don't you just love old cars :lol:

cheers

2.0 brakes go under the 14 inch 3 spokes with a small spacer to help it
