Good to see it's getting on mate, not sure about the green wire but I've seen a green wire for the rev counter ? Ask in the electrical forumz :)

jebus that was rotten lol looking good now mate
any updates cheif?
Sorry for severe lack of updates guys. The engine is in and runs :d small teething problem in that it dies when it returns to idle after starting but if i hold a rev on it for a few seconds it stays alive but i'll get to that soon enough. I've also put the new doors on it and put carpets and dash etc back in too....

I will only get time to work on it when i visit home for a while, failing that it will be waiting on me moving back north...which could be next summer or the one after

Shame about the move, are you going to take the car down south?
No the car is going to stay up north. Just waiting on some space freeing up at a mates work and he is going to take it in and start on the bodywork
Wow, nova restoration porn!! I love seing people put the effort in to save a nova, as they are slowly dying off!
The welding and fabrication displayed in this is very impressive! (does the guy deal with classic cars? You can tell he isnt only good at what he does, but has a passion for it aswell)
Keep at it :D
looks real good! i was going to go with the astra bonnet vents but somebody threw away a set i bought lol so decided keep the 'original look' but they look good on yours!
