Looks fresh :cool:
Sorry to pick but are the front lights lined up alright ? :tard:
Look forward to seeing it in the flesh at somepoint.
The front lights dont sit right for some reason mate,dont know what it is :confused:
Are the wee plastic inserts present on the front panel ?
Kerr & Smith have plenty in stock i need a couple for the GSI, makes the headlamps flop about and sit a bit off.
The headlight clips you mean?
Yeah lol thats the one.
They are in mate,i'll have a go at it at some point,so many little jobs not enough time,you know how it is lol
Yeah lol, i was supposed to be making a start on mine today but its my 1st day off in 2 weeks so i thought **** it, i'm going to sit on my ****.
Quite right mate,im really trying my hardest to stay away from the pub for a change today as well but the attraction is strong lol
I never got a chance to collect the handbrake cables or Corsa GSi front brakes over the weekend, was gonna throw them on and see how it fared on an MOT.
Where did you get the shell restored ? I know a good well priced painter, so really just looking for some good fab work/panel replacement working.
It was done by a mate of mine but he's snowed under with work at the moment,i'll be speaking to him this week and i'll mention it mate,see what he says
Yeah that'd be ideal.
It's had a lot of repair work, which if i'm honest isn't great, id' rather it was cut out and done properly.
Wont be looking to get it done til after August, going to run it until then whilst gathering panels etc.
That sounds like a plan mate,that way you'll get the summer out of it
Thats my thinking, at least if i drive it before i pull it apart i'll know what i'm missing out on, gives me time to get a few bits tidied up on my Type R while i'm running the Nova.
That looks gorgeous! Well done mate!
Thanks pal,just a few niggles to sort out.but it wouldnt be a nova if it didnt have them lolQuote:

Still wont run right,in bits i fecken hate cars :cry:
Shame about that mate, hope you figure out whats wrong with it soon or someone can point you in the right direction.
Just out of interest what are the not running right issues?
EDIT: Sorry just seen other thread :tard:
Think ive got a wiring problem kev,might have sussed it though.running a wire directly from the coil to the battery seems to have fixed it,tried that today and it started going on all four cylinders again.so going to wire it correctly with a relay will be easier than trying to find a broken wire somewhere i reckonQuote:
