Haven't seen anything from the guys in Malaysia at 'Carazee Artwork' for about a year, but here's a walkaround video from Oct 2020 of their Nova

Well done Tobias! Hopefully you'll be able to get another Nova one day when circumstances improve. Could you possibly encourage the new owner to join the Forum (if they're not already a member).
...

Sounds like Dave landed on his feet when you offered to help him to get his Nova on the road. Looking forward to the day when I can get to see the car up here in Scotland! :thumbup:

Really sorry to hear that Tobias. I was wondering why you’d been so quiet after being so active on the Forum. Your Nova was a really good example ... I’d be tempted to ask more if I were you, or...

Hi Brett,
Knowing how you like to make things from scratch, I sense a rewiring project on the horizon! :thumbup:
Good luck,
Alistair

Hi Roo,

I guess that given how rare the Nova, Avante and SS now are, there can't be that many owners about.

Also, if you consider how many members of this Forum are reasonably active, I guess...

Dave, as soon as we can travel to meet folk again you’ll be made very welcome! Just whenever suits.

Hi all,

Just a final reminder to PM me with any changes/updates/new information for the members database. I'll set a deadline of the end of January and then I'll issue a new version.

If any...

Wishing everyone on the Forum a very Happy New Year! It’s beginning to look like things could improve from the Spring. Maybe too late for meeting some of you at Stones ... but if they were to...

Never mind your £300 electric bill Steve ... I can see the huge gap on the ozone layer over London from way up here in Bonnie Scotland!

Seriously, great work and envious of your progress. For...

Many thanks Lauren. I'm going to leave them off, but I like Mike's suggestion of heat shields for the ball joint boots.

My Citroen Berlingo van has gone through a few front ball joints over the...

That’s really helpful Mike ... thanks! :thumbup:

Thanks Mike, that makes sense ... so I take it you're minded to fit backing plates to your own Nova?

Cheers Phill, I also had a look at front disc conversion kits available on the market to see if they're included. Only about 50% of those I found actually come with backing plates, which some call...

If it’s good enough for the ‘Grumpy Old Mechanic’ it’s good enough for me :thumbup:

Excellent Alex ... many thanks! :thumbup:

Quick question ... I assembled my front end a while back without the backing plates for the brakes because I felt they looked 'clumsy'. Maybe daft, coz who's going to see them other than the MOT...

Loving the engineering Mike ... and it looks like you're loving the welding too! :thumbup:

She's 'scrubbed up' really well .... looking great! With Spring not too far away you must be looking forward to getting her on the road :thumbup:

Alistair

Looking good Phill ... great to see you’re still progressing during the Winter months (unlike some! :facepalm:)

Hi Barry, and welcome to the Forum! Sounds like you’ve already done a fair amount since you got your Nova. Would be great to see some photos of your build. If you get stuck with any aspects I’m sure...

Whilst I've only got 1 Nova, I also sneaked 2 photos into the calendar ... of 2 Novas!!

....... ???????????

Phill, your Nova made a guest appearance in one of them! :thumbup:

I've started following this guy on youtube, and he somehow finds abandoned classic cars dotted around the country. So far he's not found a Nova, :facepalm: but I thought I'd share this link with you...

I never met him either Steve, but I've still got the Club Nova newsletters from that period which he used to send out. I remember looking forward to receiving the next edition!

I wrote to Ray a...

Hi JuXas,
I'd suggest you find yourself a Nova on a VW chassis that has a V5 document. Then find your electric motor, etc, and notify DVLA of the change of engine.
Before doing so, it's probably...
