Sunglasses/cap?
Crumbs Colin :)
Great Show, haven't been for a while :(
My house build has stopped most of my car habits/shows this year, even missing VBOA and Retro rides :(
Give it a little time ;)
I decked my 1.3 build, whet from 25 thou clearance to 10 thou proud, to raise compression, as well as skimming the head.
Not necessary, but depends on what you are trying to achieve, built wise
Blower fan spindle bearings seize up, can be stripped and lubricated to bring it back to life, removal is an option for racecar I suppose.......
Much better carb, 32/34 DMTL was the weber replacement for the 1B1 nova carb, and was sold by Peter Maiden Components as an upgrade, back in the day. It will perform better, if set up correctly
Long live the Loonaque :)
Thanks to photobucket I haven't any to hand, finish was a little glossy, but prefer it to vinyl where stone chips allow water to get under it and cause rust
I have my SR painted, took a sample to the paint supplier, they added some matting agent to dull the gloss finish ;)
I've always used winter tyres for many years, just bought some Kumho's for my Saab daily, to replace the worn out Goodyear winters I use the Range Rover if really bad :)
Looking good Lee ;)
I suspect the vacuum pipe is cast into the body, but I'm pretty sure a solution could be found, with a bit of thought.......
I have those plus another set :) pm me an email...... / phone no
Hi Alex, doesn't sound right, if you need additional pictures let me know, have some carbs loose on the shelf ;)
You mean an early 5 wire one ?? for descriptive purposes........
(I don't have one, sorry)
You being cheeky :o
:)
Guilty :)
I'd be surprised it the bids are real/sale goes through, however it has really thrown the Nova sports to the "worlds" attention, this advert has received massive social media and forum...
Unreal! I would have said that Nova Sport's were undervalued for years against other holmogation specials, however............after this:eek:
Better get the second one sorted :)
No ;)
Welcome Lee, another Northerner :)
Of course :)
Got just about everything to restore her......one day!!
I will hopefully be there, with my "Dirty" Sport, by all means track me down for a chat ;)
...
They do come up from time to time, unfortunately you will have to be patient ;)
Many owners have had them for years, and sales tend to be private.
Don't know if you know any Sport owner, who...
