I loved the oil cooled sparlplug mod that Benn did a couple of years ago! 

Just a useless fact, but a lot of those pics in the post made earlier (the copy n paste from the Novaload Old Skool thread) were taken by me at various shows down the years on a old film camera (remember those! ) which I spent hours scanning into my PC - seems they still do the rounds as they pop up everywhere!
I think Breeny from NL has all the pics hosted on his webspace somewhere.

Gary Hopes old nova (My fav Nova ever), then owned by _Ben_ now owned by Rick Mallard on NL, Rick still owns the burgendy, it's going under some kind of MAJOR overhaul and will be re-appearing somewhere down the line, don't expect to recognise it though!
It's worth going on NL and checking out the thread Joff (not that one!) has made about his rebuild, also Ric Drapers rebuild - two amazing projects!
