One day to go!

Looking good, glad you enjoyed your trip home too. No let the project begin
 
A guy near me is selling a white 5.1 pop top with black bumpers and red wheels. Looks great.

It's a look that can be pulled off with care.

I always prefered unpainted bumpers on Nova SR's too
 
I had the 1.3 Nova Sport, only 500 made in 1983 as a rally homologation; Irmscher built with twin 40 Weber carbs. Awesome first car and ironically a group 4 insurance whereas the Nova 1.3 SR was a group 5.
I had a white 1.3SR, went to see the legend Mr Bill Blydenstein, had Tarox brake upgrade front and rear, upgraded shocks, Bill's big valve gas flowed head, twin dellorto carbs. Was featured in Car Mechanics and and an early edition of Max Power who ran a feature on three 1.3 engine cars, mine normally aspirated, a 1275GT Mini with a supercharger and a Swift 1.3 turbo. The Swift won, but it had been chipped! Mini owner got a real sulk on, I wasn't bothered I knew I would come last!
