Is it a suitable daily driver?
Why do we love them?
Are they for everyone?
What to look for when buying or building a kit car and even a McDonald’s drive through test!
Theme music by local band “The Shooters” who have kindly let us use their awesome track for our intro.

I have one and I love it to bits. 2l golf motor. under dash electric air-com and some other mod cons. Just subed because of this video
-
My mate had one in the 80,s and we used to go out in all the time, great fun, very cool, and girls loved it. dead easy to work on
-
Fab channel I’ve been waiting for years for someone to do a nova on YouTube
-
This body design is so cool that it deserves a chassis upgrade. It looks like a pretty cohesive design. Most kit cars have really amateurish lines but this doesn't.
-
Always wanted a Nova when I was younger but could never find a good one still looks fab
-
Excellent video guys … looking forward to following the work you’re planning for the interior and body 👍
-
My upgrades would start with a more powerful engine and a power steering system. It's well worth keeping such a fantastic machine on the road. It's unique. 😘
-
I love the positives and negatives for a kit car project. Great stuff
-
Hi they made it to Australia in 70s 80s, there name here was pervis eureka, vw,and small ford motors, cracking machines, cheers mate 👍

There is one of these in the town where I live. Love the style and it looks amazing. These are kinda one of my fever dream cars
-
A guy round the corner from my family home had 1 on these back in the day.

Full Custom Garage (a car show on MotorTrend in the US) is currently airing a “Sportscar Edition” season, where he’s hacked one of these apart and put the roof on a Boxster. One interesting thing he’s done to avoid the possibility of getting trapped inside, is he’s made cups that the rear hydraulics sit in but are not bolted to. So in an emergency you can just push the roof up.

Great vid.

The Nova was an awesome car. Nova was the car to take over. Loved it in the 70’s, still love it. My next favourite was the Pegasus with V12 jag engine and gearbox Thanks for sharing ❤
-
It needs a 2110cc with a W125, 9:1 and duel 44idf carbs. That thing is sick
-
Ferrari 512 BB and Luigi Colani had a kit car
-
I so miss this car
-
perhaps a 911 engine or even a subaru boxer . cool vid
-
What I forgot to say, I have another mate that probably owns the fastest Nova in the world, drags it with vw action at Santa pod, it is in essence a spaceframe with a nova body. It is all black and very cool.

Kit cars and philosophy? Wow!
