Another nice tidy job Peter, keep em coming.

Hi Steve. it was Bushboy who sent them on after i gave him the details of who were owed.

if its all good so far (it looks ok), not a body off rebuild, so seems to be a bargain! So how many people were looking for this level of 'car to...

I think this looks like a great car, although given what has been spent I don't think anyone is going to be getting a bargain. However its all there...

Nice - Mk1 body with Mk2 dash (possibly Elam car), satnav and a nice set of clocks, glass all round (need to watch the offside as the side window...

The coil overs from VW Heritage are used in conjunction WITH leaves, so not replacements for leaves. There are units which replace the bars but of...

Another good day in the 'shed. Got the pedal box back in the SS and all piped up ready for when I remember to buy some 'DOT 4' fluid, (as well...

Is the 'cat S going on the V5' the re-registering mentioned here?...

And more importantly there is no structural damage. There assessor has made that assumption from photographs based on the fact that the engine and...

lol

I have one V5 and I am trying to get the other sorted but not holding my breath at the moment. Once I start the Nova one or 2 will be sold. Dirk

No it makes no difference to the payout, but a cat S goes on the V5 a cat N doesn't. More of a concern to me is re-insuring it, and what hoops they...

I'm gutted to hear about the accident. After all your hard work. I hope once you begin to strip down the Avante it turns out the repair is less...

You can never have too many Nova bodyshells, Dirk. Looking at your yellow canopy'd car, what you need is a repair panel to re-glass the area...

I don't think you need to measure anything. Take a look at these coil-overs for the front - there is some height adjustability with these, which...

Wow! Fantastic area for kit-car creation (and re-creation)! Hope insurance comes through as smoothly as possible! Cheers Colin

Dirk Does the catergory actually make a difference in the payout ? One means structural and the other is not. Both mean the vehicle is still...

Totally agree a great garage, and three Nova’s to make a special one out of :thumbup:

Now that's what I call a garage! ... but on the Avante, issue, is it too late to get an independent report from Flatlands??? Alistair

So the insurance company have said the car is a total loss, unfortunately we have a difference of opinion as to the category it should be in. I say N...

Me too, but once you start to drive it you make your own adjustments with your feet and footwear, at first I was catching the accelerator when...

Ha ha yes, only just spotted that! I have been keeping up with the thread, I must have missed it the first time round and just happened to go back...

I thought the same David but have got used to mine as is. I do only drive in converse or similar though!

Bet you feel great making a load of progress Peter ... well done and keep going! Alistair

I fear that on my pedal box I may need to follow suit and spread the pedals out also as they look awfully close and my feet are not small either. At...

Hi Steve, shame it’s not for sale, but glad to hear that you are going to retain the original panel. I have been searching for this panel for a long...

Very nice work Peter, as always 👍
