It’s looking brand new Mark :thumbup:
… but now that you’ve installed it in your 3 wheeled Nova, you’ll need to ask Mrs Buffy to video you taking it for a wee test drive … as Phill would say, and...
So much for quality control in the company you bought it from?!? … but I’m very envious! Have lots of fun with it Mike! :thumbup:
Cheers Steve,
I do keep copies of all the adverts I come across and occasionally try to match those searching for one with those selling. I’ve been in discussion with a guy in Scotland for a...
This Mk1 appeared at the start of 2023 and was bought by a lady who then got a job abroad so she sold it on. Looks like nothing’s happened to it since then, but if anyone is looking for a full...
That was a very productive ‘5 mins’ today Mark … looking great!
Excellent! Have fun … and hopefully you’ll be hitting the road reasonably soon :thumbup:
So happy for you Annabelle :thumbup:
Your patience has paid off! Hopefully you’ll get the Scooby running again, but if not you can always sell the engine and replace it with something else.
So...
Wow! … ££££!! … you could probably get a decent ‘rat look’ respray for that. :wink:
Great to see the chassis back Steve!
Fuel injection/ecu/etc is beyond my current knowledge, which made me think … if I were in your position I’d keep the long term goal as a future project, but...
That’s a bit of a pain Mike … but better to sort these things out before you install them and fill the cooling system :thumbup:
Oh Steve, you’re such a tease! I look forward to finding out whether you’re going ‘satin’ to keep the ‘rat look’ concept alive … or going full tilt high gloss!
Really sorry to hear about the lack...
She's looking great Phill and Dave :thumbup: .... bring on the shows and car & coffee meets :clapping:
Hi there,
I’ve got white backlights on my gauges and mainly blue backlights on my switches. I’ve only driven a few times in the dark since getting my Nova back on the road last year, but would...
Very well done Brett (and Mike)
… just been watching this thread enviously from Scotland :wink:
It’s great to see the benefits of being on the Forum for getting helpful advice from others :thumbup:
Have to admire your commitment and perseverance towards developing a solution Brett … just wish I needed air con in Bonnie Scotland! :cry::cry:
Hi Steph,
It’s based on latest information supplied by members of the Forum. As a member of the Forum you have private access to the Owners Database … see the tab at the top of the home page. ...
Yes Steve, Dave sold his black Nova last year after he got it wrapped in Gulf livery. This was the car that Bushboy helped Dave to get on the road. Dave sold it to someone in Milton Keynes but I...
There are currently only 3 road legal Novas in Scotland … but after a trip to West Lothian today to find out how the latest is progressing, it’ll soon be 4 road legal Novas! We’re looking forward to...
Another informative update Steve :thumbup:
Any word from your mechanic about progress/timescales for your engine?
Steph,
The ‘standard’ floor pan drops have a vertical rear face, but when I was doing mine, Dirk suggested a 45’ slope would be better for those instances when you’re reversing and hit something. ...
Hi Mick, I see that Theresa hit her target and has now increased it. That’s great news! :thumbup:
Funnily enough my Nap’s Hat wasn’t a good fit either … but remember that despite your rapid progress lately, it’s not a race. Take your time to get things right, even if that means walking away from...
When you bought your Nova back in August you were aiming to get it ready to pass an MOT, and you got stuck into fibre glassing, filling and painting.
I bet you never imagined being where you are...
That’s a significant milestone Henry, well done! :thumbup:
