Had the nova dropped back to me today, cage looks amazing!! going to get cracking and want the engine bay all stitch welded, strengthened and the underside stone chipped before January then it's going to my garages to completely strip it down of the steering rack/column, rear axle, doors, wings and pretty much anything else that unbolts get all the bits ready for powedercoating will update as and when I make progress as usual.

I am really looking forward to it being in the garage the main reason is I can get everything powdercoated nothing better than a freshly powdercoated part I am cheating a little bit, painting the underside with rattle cans
