K4KEV - 23/6/18 at 01:46 PM

As the title suggests....I have had great fun building this car, had great fun driving it too but it is time for a new project
I want to get my hands on a VW Nova..... I built one 36 yrs ago and always said I would get another.
Please excuse me only putting an Ebay link..... here the description is just short of a novel and the pictures have turned out
pretty good so please take a look/

Off topic but can I ask how you widened the axle on the trailer ? That’s assuming you have.


K4KEV - 23/6/18 at 03:45 PM

Nope ....all I did was turn the wheels inside out, not ideal I know, but then it is not carrying much, I built purely to transport to the IVA, but having said that a friend of mine used it to bring a roadster up from Southampton and he said it towed brilliantly, never flinched.
Anyways it is a transport solution to moving it from A to B for the sale.

Ah I new it must have been wider between the tyres to get the Roadster on.

Cheers

Still off-topic......
I chopped my axle in half and welded 300mm into the middle. I had s spare Alko axle to chop a bit out of.

Yep I have another Alko chassis in the garden and that exactly what is going to happen to it, good job those rubbers only extend inside a short way
