Thanks for the comments everyone!
Little bit of an update from last night,fitted the back bumper on,after sorting the carriers out which were really rusty on the bumper,no pics though as I need to get the car out to take some of the back,also fitted my gsi brake servo with the help of lee,cheers dude!
Still need to figure out what to do with these f******g topmounts!
Only a little bit of an update tonight,
I've had my battery box for ages and could never be bothered to put the battery in the boot, but then tonight i thought meh i'll crack on with it and its done then!
So got the battery positioned in the box with some foam in there to stop it sliding around:

Then take one empty spare wheel well, its no use for anything now anyway as i dont have a spare speedline and a steelie wont fit over my brakes so tyre weld FTW :thumb:

and then the battery box bolted down and in position!

Started the car up once everything was in place and all was fine, i mounted the distributor block under the scuttle and under the platic cover which hides the heater blower etc so all good! Nice tody and one less job to do!
I bought new bottom ball joints and track rod ends ages ago aswell so thought i would get on with fitting the bottom ball joints, could be a****d doing the track rods, so shiny balljoint,

Only took a picture of one side as theyre both the same haha so you get the idea!
Also my scuttle cover that Mr Rickardo cut out for me :thumb: Just needed trimming a little bit so i put the edging on it first:

Then after much fecking around and trimming little bits here and there i got it too sit quite nicely, so thats being dropped of for powder coating tommorow along with manifold heatshield and also plug cover just to smarten things up a little!
And lastly the obligatory built up arch shot!

This is a proper nice nova now Andy,cant wait to see this one :thumb:
Very nice!
Good work again Andy!
Can I recommend having the scuttle cover done in the bobbly black finished paint (can't think of its name). Looks really good. I had a satin one but got the bobbly this time (think it might be called crackle paint?) and really looks factory imo.
Thanks for the comments everyone :)
Hhhmmm sounds like a good idea Simps,I take it the paint gives it quite an original finish sort of thing??? I'll bear it in mind mate!
It's looking really good pal. Can't wait to see it rolling.
