I've had this Nova for a while, i was intending on scrapping it but ive now decided im going to keep it.

I've ordered new sills and rear panel for it, still need arch repair panels and two new doors.

It does need welding on the boot floor beside where the rear panel has rotten, beside the sill at the chassis leg and i need to make up new splash guards.

I'm intending on buying a C20XE/20XE for it and doing a little bit of headwork to it along with a rebuild.

I'm unsure on colour at the moment it will be either Breeze Blue or Miami Blue.

I've got a set of Cavalier GSI wheels for it, im not sure whether im going to keep the standard bumpers or get GSi bumpers and paint them black but either way it will have a Laguna splitter on the front and Nova GTE on the back.

heres how it looked when i first got it

Good to see your cracking on with it mate :)

I have a spare passenger door here in silver, mint condition as well and some other Nova spares if you'd fancy a wee trip down ?

I was going to buy another Nova but ive decided to just save this one and do it how i want it.

I'll get more photos this week of it as it sits now, hopefully start working on it next week as i have it off from work.
