[mikeoxford]

holy cow!!!!!!!!!


where did u find that?

[mikeoxford]

is it twin engined or just a rear drive?

[novax]

Oh my GOD! That's a project and a half... Looks awsome, I like the front light perticularly.

[whitey]

NICE! MUST be noisy as FCUK though! And scary! Headlights mint too!

looks like they built a potetion in the middle so may not be AS noisey as it could be

[ross255]

Yes there is a proper fire wall built in, doubled sided, and double glazed

[Ian]

looks like th eone that was built by lyndsay from bigboyz toys and appeared at billing unfinished a few years ago

[Phil_G]

There's only one thing wrong that I've noticed with it...........




no turbo :lol: :lol: :lol:

CP - wots he like :roll:

The only thing that I can quite get my head round is how the handling is affected by having no engine in the front?

Without a fair bit of balast bunged in there, would it not be annoyingly tail happy?




One other small point - it looks like a Golf at the front :|
Otherwise it certainly is a beast :D

[mikeoxford]

CP - wots he like :roll:

says it all :lol:

[ade]

its certainly "different"

Rear arches are strange - thought it would have been better to extend the original arches or at least smooth the original triangle bit.

Then I guiess the stlying aint the real point is it - more the originality/power.

The engine, and the whole engine 'compartment' looks like a right mess though.

[Fester]

theres been loads of talk over the years about people knowing peoples uncles whove got RWD novas, thats the first ive seen, road trim or otherwise

fair play to the guy

[TeddySRi]

There was one at the Vauxhall show 2 years ago.

[wisewood]

i say good on em...

first i have seen too...
the rumours have been around for years though.

the styling aint my taste either but like has already been said - thats not the point.

[dan16v]

:o fester cant believe uve never seen one! theres loads down our local oval track al drivers in stock rod type racing use them!

[Chris LR]

I agree Beast!

Looks stupid at the front, but overall quiet Standard which is good.

I bet when ppl pull up at the lights they think it's a botched up Nova with tacky Golf Lights and a stupid rear wing, boy do they get a suprise.

[jatinder]

to sum up: a beast but not so nice looking

[mikeoxford]

its for sale

?3k

[Wiggie]

mental. wonder if he left the engine in the front as well though, wunt have much stering control with the loss of wieght shorly? fair play though, sumit not to many people hae done (first ive seen)

[whitey]

imagine having to climb in and service the fcuker! Easier here and there but could be a nightmare in some places.

[Wiggie]

yeah as the engines backward aswell

[locky]

Im 99% certain i know the bloke who helped build it!
If the owner uses this site, ru from S.Wales? I'd like 2 know, as i spoke 2 som1 a few weeks back and the car is identical 2 the pics in the mag! just without the respray, as it wasnt finished in time! 99% certain tho!

[locky]

Just read thru the comments and !an mentioned big boyz toys, it was the owner i spoke 2 a few weeks back!!!!!

[Fester]

the engine isnt 'backwards' its as it would sit in the engine bay. if it was facing you as you looked at it in the boot then it would be backwards :)

[Wiggie]

:roll: lol you know what i mean
