 Cool. Explanations required: Tubbed? WIP? |

Cool. Explanations required: Tubbed? WIP? Tubbed... the rear inner wings have been modified to allow wider wheels and tyre to fit under the standard arches. WIP = Work In Progress. |

... the only injury I sustained was a bumped head when I let the seatbelt of without realizing the car was upside down  and that's not really the car's fault. |

/\ what he said  except in this case its been tubbed to allow lowness rather than width Its eventually going RWD using a 924 transaxle, and knowing the owner it will too! He bought it for £70 as he wanted something he could track without worrying about it (as you can see from the bodywork, its a bit 'tatty' heh) it will see initial use in FWD format with an XE on r1 carbs etc. Lots of interesting details coming together on it Shonky pic of said tubbedness  |

More:  I'm guessing its an XE then  cool pair of Kadetts  the one on the left is running Toyota 4AG(i think!) power and the other Nissan SR20DE power. lower lower!  V6 manta was sexy  oh and my new purchase made it onto the Viva Owners Club stand  Which the previous owner was a member of but never made it to. I promised him photos of the car at Billing as he isnt on the internet |

Thanks for the explanations guys. I thought tubbed might have a different meaning in Nova circles...but that one really is tubbed! As for Wip - that makes sense now! Cheers!

There was a lot of quality stuff there, that brown Nova on the Rota wheels is my fave I think.

Looks like there are a lot of very feature worthy Vauxhauls in the UK. Nice work VX scene! I shall use this as inspiration to push me to build my car to that level of quality! |
