12k mile mrk 1 C20let Project!!

[corsakid]

well after breaking my corsa turbo my brother decided to buy the engine off me and put it into a nova!

the search was on

it had to be clean, mrk1 , good shell, and for the right money

i had a test from kev bradford saying he had a 12k mile nova a price ws agreed and a date set for collection!

a long drive up from south wales to north wales and i was now the owener of a very very clean 12k mrk 1 nova i couldnt believe how clean it actually was but it is genuine never been painted full service history up to 2006 when kev tyook it off road last service was 11k miles

it had done 15miles in 2-3 years i had it doing 154, suprisingly it broke down nothing major just fuel pipe perrished, rac man came out and replaced the hose from the tank to the fuel lines, and away we went, rear brakes decided radaomly to come on

but we got home and now the project can begin

plans are

similar to keith robinsons build, gsi replica, high spec c20let f28, alot of silcone, omex 600 hopefully be done before x mas

Starting to go in the joint between the battery tray, bulkhead and arch though, you can see the discoloration of the seam sealer,

thats just dirt and dust
