mine dont know how to put pictures up so heres the link
If when you look in your album, you hold your mouse cursor over the picture, a little box appears with all of the different link codes, if you move down to the one that says 'IMG code' and click on it, the link will disappear and be replaced with the word 'copied' come to the reply box on here, click into it as you would to write a reply and press the 'ctrl' key, (bottom row left side of the keyboard, and also on the right, second along from the space bar) hold it down and press 'V' this will paste your copied link into the reply, when you press 'post reply' the picture will show, you can add upto 15 (i think) pics per reply:thumb:

Is the yellow and red one in fact the same car, or did a lot of bits get swapped over?

It was a total reshell into a donor SR. A lot of the parts were swapped over but the engine and exhaust system were new for the red one. I believe the engine from the red one which I bought from Vauxhall for about a grand is still around too.

When the owner of the house and car died it was left to a relative of their family. The person I bought it of spotted the new owners at the house and asked if they would sell the Nova. He got it for a few pound, I have a receipt here for it. lol

Cheers Gunny. Well I wouldn't say I got it for pennies, I paid a reasonable price imo by the time I had it home. It was a non-runner when I got it as well and needed a bit of a recomission to put it right as it hasn't been on the road since 2000.

That needs a big block, but with the care and eye that Nick has, (blowing my own trumpet) but some stupidly clean ones deserve to be built to go fast, but looked after in the process, ive seen pics of mine when it was still a 1.2 (i drooled round it myself @ pvs when the 25th anniversary stand had over a hundred novas on it) but i think it looks waay better as it does now!
Nick, take one without the cover on the roof! lol

There is no doubt that the car would be a perfect car to convert. But I think it would a shame to do this to my Nova because of the miles and the fact it has only changed slightly in its near 30 year old guise. There is still some real clean base models kicking about with 20/30/40k on them that would be better suited to being chopped up IMO. lol

Why? What exactly is there to like about a 1l nova?
Handle like boats,your gonna lose off the line to a tomos 50 pedal and pop.
Interior is awful and the best thing that could ever happen is for it to be fitted with the much nicer sr or gte interior

It's a MK1
Polar white (the best colour imo)
Less 3.5k from new.
Plenty of people like it, I don't give a flying **** if you like it or not. I like it which is the main thing. :thumb:

it wasnt a comment on your car,it was on any mk of nova,doesnt matter if its never even turned over on 0 miles,1l base models-theyre still sh1t.
I do like yours,but me,well i have owned one with silly low mileage in mint condition,and i binned the engine and interior the same week lol

beautiful car, I would be tempted to just restore it as it is, early GLs are more rare than SRs?

Mmm, there was a certain genuine Brazil Brown Sport with a Polar White top coat that was originally bought from Brabham's. lol
I agree with the previous comments, keep it as a GL, they are getting rare and impossible to find now.
But..... if you do SR rep it, keep me in mind for the chrome window trims ;)

Conner, is that a new addition?
Not seen you in years since the mids meet when you were still at uni.
Yea i bought it a couple of months ago for rallying as it is MSA log booked ready to rally.
Yea i remember that mids meet, when you took me for a blap in j20xe, that thing was a beast.
Finished uni now, living back down essex and now a design engineer :)
That looks way to clean to rally!
That looks way to clean to rally!
Everyone's said that, It's had a quick blowover to make it look pretty, been rallies since 2003 so it's far from clean, so ideal for what I want to use it for, will only be used for Tarmac rallies so shouldn't get ruined (fingers crossed anyways lol)
I'll qoute you that why it's spinning on its roof on fire.... lol Joke.
