SEH nova
« on: May 27, 2010, 10:47:59 AM »

Well thought id start up a WIP as i started stripping the nova down yesterday. Managed to get a fair bit done.

Bonnet, headlights, grille, seats(apart from drivers seat as i needed to get it back up to the garage), complete dash, door cards and wingmirrors.

All thats left is front & rear bumpers, wings doors and boot. Gonna be taking the 1.2 lump out as soon as i manage to get/borrow an engine hoist.

Pic will be up soon as i need to find my USB lead
