    Default 2lt 16v nova for doner parts

    Ideal donar car for 2 litre conversion.

    Basically the rust has taken the car past its limit i have had it for about 12 years and the last year its just rotted to the point of no return

    i have bought a new house and my parents want it off their drive - i was trying my hand at welding but think i had an epic fail, it has a genuine rear quarter badly welded on that may be able to be rescued. Its not worth trying to return to the road as the front cross member is rusted and cracked and the rear chassis rails have been cut off. I also dont really want to see anyone else driving it


    It has
    • the engine and everything in the engine bay still fitted (early xe with cocast head) fitted with new pistons about 3000 miles ago
    • Spax coil overs
    • chris astley competition exhaust manifold and system
    • two very tidy doors with no rust (delocked)
    • gsi dash and digidash
    I will need someone to come and take this whole as i dont have time to strip it. so it will need a hi-ab or trailer and also will need some wheels to get it on the trailer.

    i have no idea what bit are going for as i have been out of the nova scene for some years

    but if i stick it in at £550 ( i think this is a good starting point for whats left on it)

    doors could be sold seperatly as they are very tidy

    i also have other bits and peices from it but no idea on prices
    gsi seats (fronts with no rips but the plastic thing on the side is snapped)
    gsi rear seats (drivers side bottom seat has weld splatter on it so looks crap)
    gsi door cards and caps
    grey rear arch covers
    blue antibes carpet
    brand new mk1 wings (non genuine)
    brand new mk1 headlights & indicators
    genuine rear panel skin
    genunie rear panel with cross member and boot latch
    drivers side sill skin
    4 corsa sxi alloys
    2 brand new toyo proxies 195/50/15
    Tinted rear windows with sr surround (complete with pngclub sticker and migweb stickers)
    GSi spoiler
    E-tech Strut brace that fits over SFi box (it was very close and ocassionally rubbed on saggy engine mounts) £15
    Rigid Boot side panels

    some pics




    new pistons that were put in

    the suspension how ever not quite as new looking now


    the death at the rear end

    it should do if i re wire the fuel pump and stick some fuel in it. might be noisey though as the rear silencer isnt on it at the moment
