Looking good there bud and fair play to you for being out in the cold when its that bad, ive just called any a mad bugger for working on his nova and its only -2 where he is lol
I do have a heater in the lockup but as the gas had started to freeze it was about as much use as a chocolate fire gaurd lol.
Ive been on the car again today.
I got the rear bonnet pins fitted the hole front suspention moved from stick to the new shell.I fit the oil cooler and found the head lights but im in need of a passenger one as mine is knackered.
I also got it back onto the ground today ready to get the back end up into the air so i can paint under neath before attacking the inside.
I also fit the strut brace/feul pump/filter holder(not bolted down yet) and the single wiper.
Once i had done all this it got lowered down onto its wheels (well ollys old ones cheers mate) for the first time.
Once on the floor it decided to dump whatever feul was in the tank onto the floor.
pics time.

If you dont ask youve got no chance.
Looking spot on mate!
You'll have to put up in detail of how to plumb in the swirl pot (Lee did tell me,but that was ages ago) As i will need some refrance for doing mine..
Im appling for jobs,so (everything crossed) i might have some dosh in the future to get on and sort mine out.
Scott
Well i will have to ask him or dar so i can plumb mine in aswell.
I think it goes from the tank to a pump then to the swirl pot then to the filter then the h/p pump then to the engine then from the engine to the swirl pot then to the tank i think.
Not sure which ones you go into and out of on the swirl pot tho.
Good luck with the job hunting.
If you have a 4 way pot, Bottom one is feed to injection rail, next one up is feed from tank, next one up is return from FPR and the top one is return to tank :)

I'd black hammer right the under side of the boot floor, seals it in better and keeps rust at bay better. (looks nice too)
Comming along good tho dude.
Just for Ad as i know how much he wants this shell lol.
Ive got on with the painting today.I also fitted the front and rear bumpers.
Just got to wait for the paint to dry then i can fit the exhaust wireing loome dashboard and seats.
Once thats done i just need to plumb the feul lines bleed the brakes and fill the fluids up and it should be ready to go.
What do you think ?
