View Full Version : Need PNG's finest to help me out
Right im ive been looking for a nova project to build up for when im 17 and to use as a first car. ive found this one but i dunno if its too much of a project for my first one. but (not trying to be big headed) i am pretty handy with engine's and cars. in the back ground there's an SR and i can get the interior and stuff out of it. So should i take it on or not ??

PM'd
information has reached me that this is a shed so its a no go
why a shed? looks good. what you after spending?
lots of people call novas sheds, ****ters, rot boxes!!! my point is dont take someone elses word go and look yourself. could miss out on a minter
panels are easy to get, if ya after a project then its gonna be good to learn to weld.
found another one thats a bit cheaper and closer to me.
ive got £300 and im waiting to sell my go kart and decks to fund a nova

Boot floor has fibreglass & filler at one side, plates at the other, engine bay has had a few plates put on to cover up holes, one of which has been too small so has been filled with weld, and fook knows how much filler on the back arches, where they've been rolled up is at least 10-15mm thick, didn't bother looking anywhere else after seeing that...

Does it come with glass, dash, loom etc..?
If so yeah go for it. If not go for it and then spend the next 5 years getting all the odds and sod for it.
if youd said 600 ya could of had my xe! oh well
I was watching that myself on ebay for ages - just read latest posts - mmmmm
sounds like someome has gone to alot of effort to cover up the rot.
save the money and try and find an ekderly person with a mint shell

Thats 95% of novas out there and here. If theres no rust on the surface and it s soild (cant push ya finger thru a rusty hole) do it. You'll learn alot as you rebuild it, so you know how to build your next one.
