its a big hole and the splash guard fell off whole, whats better a sr shell or a 1.2 shell as a gsi

SR's a mk1, so if the 1.2 shell's a mk2 then the 1.2 :)

[just vaux trev]

fix it, no much bother

[jack8545]

aye that's a mk1 wi mk2 bits but iv got a mk2 1.2 that's very clean and doesn't have a gaping hole in it lol

TBH i'd try and fix the arch as it would be cheaper than byng a new shell.

Piss easy to make a new splash guard dude, do it and save yourself the money and hassle of reshelling. Unless it's gone on the chasis rails etc.

Too many Novas are scrapped for what are little jobs in the eyes of other owners (Ford for expample lol) You all say yourselves how few of them are seen on the roads... Don't let it die. FFS I remind myself of Meritlover.

easy fix, bit of metal, bit of welding and youl need a grinder and job done ;) should see the repairs im doing on the mk2 escort. save another nova

[dj_wudgey]

[jack8545]

found more crust on her today.

its in the turret type part where the strut goes, it looks OK on the outside but inside there's a bit of channel that's rotten

think a picture will be better lol

[thegingerwhinger]

would be easy to fix but i went to buy this car after helping the guy before with the 40's and its quite sore on the underside with rust. i stepped away but could be fixed:thumb:

[jack8545]

where underneath, only bit i found was at the bottom o the splash guard
