[P Whack]

Hav recently purchased a nova hatch off one of my mates for ?50! so it is being part rebuilt as some ares need some attention, anyway here are some off the pics of what i have got. Battery tray is totally goe and so is the rear panel as u can probably tell turning the front end back to a mk 1 as thats what it should be! oredered replacement parts for the panel and battery tray

Nice! Its a 1ltr mate, and whoever drilled the airbox did it in completely the wrong place - it will be drawing in un filtered air there!! Doesn't really matter tho as your planning on ripping it all out anyway!

looks like a good base for a project, and the bodywork dosnt look that bad hey, i like the sound of a carbon dash! and the engine choice sounds very good! are you going to make the carbon dash yourself? good luck with this project, p.s i reckon that you should put some white pearl in the paint, this would look amazing.

[P Whack]

That seems like quite a good idea still keeping it white with a twist, yeah will be making the dash myself with a friend, hopefully the week after the engine has gone in

Thats a 1.0 3cyclinder pushrod. Nova's never had 1.1 engines.

You ever messed with Carbon Fibre before? I have, lots of times.....its anything but fapping easy! Good luck making a carbon dash you'll be needing it

[P Whack]

I know its a 1 litre was a moment of madness and cant change it now yeah me and my mate have made a whole back end for a nova made in carbon fibre so should be able to make a dash from it
