Get in touch with Keith Stringer. He runs/helps run club nova. If he can't find one for sale I doubt anyone will unless you're lucky.

It might be worthwhile buying an abandoned kit to get the screen from. I've seen body shells going for less than screens.

Don't worry I've allocated a year of my life to building the moulds. Can't say I am looking forward to it. I have helped with a canoe and some boat
hulls in the past but a car is going to be a lot more tricky. I plan on getting the car running and track tested with the undertray fitted before I
commit to the mould production. Hopefully if all goes well I will be at that stage by the start of next winter.

Reminds me of the old Spike Milligan joke.
"flying is safe, crashing is dangerous!"
Similarly, making moulds is quick and easy (relatively)....it's the plugs that are hard work....
Of course I knew what you meant..the whole plug/mould process.......still by the time you are at that stage you'll have a whole catalog of do's,
dont's, oop's, and oh crap's to learn from....
It helps having done it before..I already knew what a dire, thankless task it was...
Good luck
