nice van mate. Is that a spider in your avatar if so is it yours.

[Southie]

Welcome to PNG, enjoy your stay ;)

I have a C20xe Combo B so it's not all Novas here :D

Looks well on the Speedlines very nice, and loving how low it sits. Do they have torsion bars at the back or does it run standard Corsa C shocks and springs?

What else do you have planned for it then??

[davidfox280585]

nice van mate. Is that a spider in your avatar if so is it yours.

will do its not far off now to be honest
i never really took many pics it was an ebay car

i sold the 4x4 shel for 100 quid after i releived it from the running gear brakes and few bits my mate bought it for transfer box and rear shafts
gsi bumper was 30 quid interior ebay again 127 quid
will put a thread up as soon as i get a few more pics mate

[davidfox280585]

lol seriously the leather is in the loft and needed to take it out the garage and we threw the original brown interior away so out came the garden chair lol

[Graeme]

I bet the brown interior would of fetched a mint on here, as does all the old stuff, don't say you threw the old one piece front bumper and plough away the linch parties will start gathering

it was brown though lol
have i done wrong:(
the dash was brown it had early mirrors but my mate snapped them off
the seats were brown and everything it was horrible now updated to gsi spec
it did have the one piece bumper grill too think i burnt them on the fire at the unit yard

[Pillar]

was just looking at your nova project and thinking same are the wheels look nice mate was the bonnet hard to do nah its just used an origional pulsar bonnet cut the skin off the welded it on still need to finish it i bought it part done.

brown nova interior is worth muchos pennies mate, i know of a guy with a very early sr resto that needs a brown dash. he has £200 sat waiting for one! loving the combo c, ive always wanted one myself....

:wall: if only i knew
i didnt think anybody would want a standard brown interior

i got the combo as my b van kept breaking
ive wanted one for ages too but they were always too dear and didnt want to be part of the modded astra van crew i wanted to be different:thumb:
