Reyt guys me and my mate are doing a C20let conversion so thought id start up my project post! The nova we have bought is a fairly good base, not alot of bad bodywork, but my mate has a bodyshop anyway so its reyt! lol woudlnt be a project without some work involved!

We will be startin to strip it all back to bare metal either next week or the week after so we can weld what needs welding and to get it all seem welded.

Were hoping to get it done for Xmas so theres going to be alot of days off work and lonnggg nights!
