What course are you studying? surely if you only need to demonstrate your knowledge then a rolling shell is fine? aslong as its MOTable

Find a cheap Nova in your local free ads & buy it.

Then find a cheap 2.0 8v or ecotec w/box & fit it with the necessary shafts & mounts.

Short of delivering all the parts to your door, what help do you expect. You are the trainee mechanic afterall.
