My Nova Rebuild Thread...

i have a home made black head lineing which i made the same way lol
was in the blue nova for over 3 year's before it started to sag here and there .
how have you got it to stick to the pillars??


looking good mate

Pilers??

Got the 2 bars as required. Because its made from material it was easier to force it to shape around the door and boot trim edges.

Just used good old Bostick glue and a ****e load of the office bulldog clip things.

:cry: sorry i think i ment pillar's thats if that the right spelling lol

it is top work tho !!

Got the windscreen in yesterday, and the tailgate window. Also made a start on the rear windows.

Roof lining is now 100% completed. Put the sun visors and interior light in. Just need to fix the rear view mirror.

Just need to finish the rear windows and it is then water tight!! Which is a good thing as it could do with abit of a clean TBH lol

My target of April 9th to be at Castle Coomb is 4 weeks away and i am not that confident in making it TBH. But i will try!

Will get some pics up soon.

Hope its at Combe, i'll have a lookie.

Looking really good mate!

Did a little yesterday. I need to glue the metal tabs onto the glass for my opening rear windows. Being the obsessive person i am, i couldnt just stick them on. So....i bought some glass glue and got some Araldite and carried out a little test with 2 bits of metal and a scrap piece of glass. I will check them today to see which has stuck better!!

Few pics of the bits done on the inside..

Needs tidying up in a few places, but considering that my mum (although she did my seats!) my dad or myself are not upholsterers...not a bad job IMO!!

Will get the dash carcass in next week, then some number plates. My April 9th target date is fast approaching and TBH it will be a miracle if i make it!! Time will tell....

Ha ha bless him your nova is comeing on well , that headlining is spot on

Headlining looks nice, they are a night mare to do.
