Very cool looking Nova
You should definitely leave the black/red theme going on i think.

forgot to say.

if k frames are good enough to paint porsche 996 turbos and restore porches from 30 years ago they can also handle a nova

they were also the first folk in scotland that done a lot of custom work for bedrock veedubs
