Yeah, just used Hammerite. First coat takes ages but the second coat takes half the time and finishes it all off nicely.

Paint the suspension bits for the front and paint the rear inner arches and the drums.

Then I'll be looking for a nice exhaust system and possibly some engine bits. Off for a month at Easter so hopefully I'll get it all done, MOT'd and back on the road then.

Are the centre caps on the comps anodised?? Small touch but I bet they would look awesome in red, to go with the bumpstrips and the pinstripe!!

Ps love it!! Ipitimises the perfect Nova for me!!:thumb:

No real update...

Did a couple of bits with the car this weekend and got it back on four wheels and out the garage. Managed to finally get a nice finish on all the hubs etc and bolted them all back on - I've got some pics on my cam but the battery has died so I'll upload them later.

Haven't been that enthusiastic about the car for the last couple of months as it's just sat in the garage doing nothing so got it out and took some pics on my other cam just for the hell of it...
