sure?? im 99.9% sure saw it with cream cali leather
cant imagine there being two so simular around at same time? how did you know of it? maybe it had the cream before you saw it??
used to park on north road crayford/dartford

There's been a few Rio Verde nova's around, this one has never had cream Leather in it though, Gary Hope fitted it when he built it, then it went down to Kent way to Ben who had it before Rick. I'm sure i have pictures somewhere of a Rio Verde Nova with Cream Leather but i'm not sure where that one came from.

hmmmm maybe ive seen a green one with cream leather somewhere else, put 2 and 2 together and got 5!!?
mustve been this one i saw in dartford thou i rem the gold wheels and the bonnet vents etc.
maybe i just imagined the cream as thought would look good with the rim colour.
either way i fell inlove with it and stil love how it is today!
dark metalics always suit novas, like the bently purple one i think guy called martin owns?

I knew GARRY when he built it back in 1995-96, and it had the black leather then. When BEN had it before me, he didn't change the interior.

Got the mag yesterday just to keep the feature. Car looked fantastic. You really finished it off well, all the little details make a big difference.

You've left your mark on one of the top Nova's in the UK. Congrats:thumb:
