    Default Richards XE Nova Track Car

    Hi,

    Just thought id post all my pics of my build so far. Im building an stripped out nova with throttle bodied xe lump up front. The worst part of my build is that ive set myself a 6 week deadline to get it down to USC at the start of august.

    The nova was one I bought locally and personally it was hideous. But it had a gte engine in it so it was fair nippy!

    The donor car was my very rotten astra gsi the engine almost fell out it was that bad. Engine is stripped and it all looks in good nick.

    Constructive critism welcome as always

    Thanks

    Richard
