The folks over on Exotic Spotter just posted some photos taken in Tamworth, UK of this radically modified Nova (Sterling) kit car on a VW chassis — although only the roof/window/door assembly appears to have been retained. It also seems to be using pieces from a Corvette (the dash), a Cougar (front lights), and a Vauxhall (rear lights)… Other than the front lights I like it.
PS. Notice the “53″ Herbie homage?
Un échange de votre NOVA avec un trike 1600 injection, ça vous dit ?
J’ai eu une NOVA et une PUMA GTV mais pas aussi radicales que celle-ci. Quel travail. Bravo. Qui est l’heureux propriétaire de cette Nova ?

That’s Steve McHugh’s car over in the UK. He gets all kinds of comments, good and bad, but bottom line – his fiberglass work is second to none. To find out more on the car, please visit us at http://www.euro-nova.co.uk/
sorry for the unabashed plug!
I love it!
Okay, so I look at this car…and I bring my co-worker over to see this. It’s so unabashedly off-the-hook, that we think we actually like it.
With a cleaned up Subaru flat 4 turbo instead of the Bug motor, and a different color..yeah, I’d drive it with pride. It’s so…”In Your Face”!
Course I’m a huge Sterling fan, dreaming of a tube framed Sterling running an electric conversion using the controller and motor from AC Propulsion with custom battery packs of A123 cells similar to the Killacycle.
I don’t think I could hate anything with the Sterling’s flip top. I’ve wanted one since seeing one as a kid in the “Cannonball Run” movies.
