I know, I've seen one, and only one, at billing this year. Thought I'd do it properly tho, hubs, brakes and wheels. I think the 4 stud ones look a bit strange for some reason tho.

Any pics of said novas? The wheels are quite similar to my OZ's just bigger and 5 twin spokes not 6.

Cheers Mike, I'll have a google:thumb:

Ouch! ?75 or though working it out cheaper than the Spoon ones

EDIT: mmmmm, carbon

someone on here had a red nova with those wheels in black, think it was novaash or something, got rear ended iirc, the other was a White GSi outside a little garage in Castle Combe, saw it when i was driving my SR back from a rolling road session, i broke my hazard switch putting my hazards on when i stopped lol

Hmmm depends on the pitch of the thread on those Spoon items compared to UK thread sizes.

looking gd mate keep up the gd work

Aye 4 studders are rare, look proper nice though if anyone did track down a set.

Ash re PM (inbox full)

That Mocca brown car I saw for sale is now sold. The local college bought it for the automotive dept.

So its destiny is in ruins.

^ Noooo :-(

I was planning to have TonySR's blue shell from him, but for my own reasons i've had to let him down, which I wasn't happy about and didn't take lightly, but it was for the best... I think. As has been said to me, there's alot to be said for knowing your shell, so I'm keeping mine and have just ordered a few more GM panels to complete it. Still looking for a cage tho.

In other news;

My billy head is at John Perrett's having it checked over, ultra light skim, valve stem seals, but now before I cleaned it up. Check out the size of my valves! (ignore the blue crap, it's the old paint + nitromortes)

Till next time

EDIT: Those photo's look crap! Ghay camera phone

That dash looks like it could be made to look pretty trick in a custom mk2 binnacle top. Fibreglassed maybe.

Not interested in Dans shell? Or Chris Tunnicliffe's?
