    Bidding currently at a paltry £220.

    Obviously I'm not going to sell it for that, I can get more than that for the rollcage alone!

    So, if you are interested, get bidding now before I withdraw it from sale.

    The rolling shell, as advertised on EBAY, can be had for a bargain £550, on the strict basis that it is collected by THIS WEEKEND AT THE LATEST.

    After that I will be stripping it.

    Got to be cheap for a roller with full SD cage, polycarbonate windows, plumbed-in fire system, fibreglass bonnet and tailgate, hydraulic handbrake, full Aeroquip, MSA logbook etc.

    Lack of time and needing some cash for another car I want forces my hand!

    I see EBAY have now blocked access to the old auction details (typical), so here is the full description I used for it;

    VAUXHALL NOVA Rally Car Rolling Shell - Suitable for Race, Track Day, Rallycross, Autograss, Sprint, Hillclimb etc

    NO RESERVE auction for a Vauxhall Nova rally car ROLLING SHELL. I stress it is a ROLLING SHELL, it is most certainly NOT a complete car - look at the photos to see what you are getting.

    This Nova has been dry stored for the last 7 years, so it is cretainly not immaculate, it will need the inevitable re-commissioning, and a good amount of TLC. If you are in any doubt about what this means, DO NOT BID! It was a very competitive and well-specced car back in its day, but has obviously seen a lot of action on rally stages over the years.

    The engine (with ancillaries), gearbox, seats, safety harnesses have all been removed, and are therefore NOT included in this sale.

    You are bidding on the car EXACTLY as shown in the photos, so it will need all of the above parts, and more, to rebuild it again. You will get all the parts shown on the car in the photos, nothing else is included (although I do have lots more Nova parts available if you require anything else).


    The full Specification is as follows;

    Engine

    NO ENGINE IS FITTED

    Transmission

    NO GEARBOX IS FITTED

    Bodyshell

    Fully seam welded and strengthened
    Double skinned floorpan
    Fibreglass Bonnet
    Fibreglass Tailgate

    Tinted perspex windows with sliders for driver and co-driver
    Full SAFETY DEVICES bolt-in roll cage, fixed diagonal, door bars
    Welded-in rear strut brace/harness bar
    Welded-in seat rails

    Alloy fuel tank guard

    Alloy navigators footrest with horn push
    Spare wheel holder

    Suspension

    Bilstein Thick Tube rear dampers with tarmac spec. springs
    Gas filled front struts with lowered and uprated springs
    Strengthened track control arms

    Brakes

    Standard rear drums

    SPA 3.375 litre Plumbed in fire extinguisher system
    FIA Battery master switch
    Large bore competition exhaust system
    Alloy pedal covers
    Polyurethane mudflaps front and rear
    First Aid Kit
    Warning triangle
