Cheers for the arch comments, I know this might sound perverted but there starting to feel good as well :)
I'd LOVE the car to be done and complete for Billing 2011 but I can't see that happening as my K reg Nova is coming off the road for good and I need to get another daily and pay insurance etc
We'll see what happens though :)
Arches look good mate
What's up with the k reg ? Surely you could use that as a daily still ?
Needs a wee bit of welding mate and some mechanical bits and bobs as well...It's at that stage where it needs a lot of work and atm I don't have enough money to spend on it so I'm going to store it away and leave it and maybe one year I'll bring it back out and give it a wee rebuild...
Want the MK1 done though and a sound daily
why are you putting it in guide coat when you havent primed it yet that seems pointless
To see if it needs any more cataloy - Just so I can get a rough idea
I was in at the lockup during the week for a wee while - Got the welds on the arch lips buffed down flat and got the arch lip, sill and back arch (under the bumper) into Poly - No pictures though but today I was in and got all the poly rubbed and it's starting to take shape, looks nice and clean now:

Gave it a slight flat with 180 and stuck some guide coat on it:

Other side (Welds buffed, arch lip, sill and behind bumper) into Poly ready to rub next weekend or maybe a night during the week:

That's it for today! Boring update..
Comments welcome

its not boring,well fillerwork is but its progress mate,will this make billing next year??
I'd like to hope so but I'm in no real rush! Going to be pricing up 2L of 2K Flame Red today hopefully then I'll really get the finger out
Think it'll draw or be wanting a crowd ? lol
well i'll certainly be straight over to see it,i like your ideas and that youve got the whole motorsport thing going on with it
Well, hopefully it's there mate, I'd love it to be lol :thumb:
I can't really say that I've got my 'ideal/perfect' Nova - I just buy what I want/like and try to make something out of it - Not going to be everyones taste (Same as my Mk2) but I'm not doing it for the crowd like some folk, I'm doing it for me
Glad you like it so far though mate
