    Next was to rebuild the original 51k 1.3 engine
    The nova drove home sound no problems
    But it's not part of my plan to leave parts untouched

    New parts on engine fitted

    Clutch kit, reverse light switch, full gearbox gasket set including drive shaft seals,
    Timing belt kit and water pump, full engine gasket and seal kit,
    New oil pump, got the sump powder coated, engine mountings
    Clutch cable, dizzy, dizzy cap, rotar arm, HT leads,
    Plugs, air and oil filters.
    Polished the rocker cover and oil cap
    Loads of stainless steel bolts
    The head was sent away for skimming and checking

    Loads more that I've probably forgot

    The shafts got a refurb bit of paint and new cv boots.
    The hubs got striped painted and new bearings fitted.
    Lower arms, tie bars, anti roll bar and mounting all
    Painted and new bushes fitted
    Went for the original black bushes not poly ones
