Sounds like a nova indeed!!! lol, just gotta bang it back together and go for another test drive! rear mount, gear linkage, loom, steering colum, dash wiring, shafts, hubs, tie bars, roll bar, all to go back on, hours work tops yeah? or maybe not lol
Awesome to see from start to finish!! Some long nights put in to her mate!!
A credit to you for getting it all done though.
When are you out competing?
Was hoping to do bovington but think may skip it, was hoping to get few single venues in this year and then do wyedean and somerset next year, whether that happens or not who knows?
I'll take your car out for an event if you like? :D Hows the new engine going? Any chance of bit more power yet?
Had a quiet day at Work today so over the warehouse i dug out another nova i had lying around and took it into my workshop. And then took half hour to strip it out.
In its hiding place
