basically gong to give it a fresh coat of paint sort all the rust on arches etc remove single wiper and sunvisor and possibly remove the front splitter and a general tidy to make it a nica daily!:thumb: oh and ive go some speedlines for her too:) . and just a quick piccy of my old nova for good measure;)

ye it did have softstars on but i bought it without because ive got some speedlines at home, it got a 1.2 engine in at the moment but might go for a gsi engine, definatly going to keep it a small block or might just keep the engine as it is im only 18 and this is my 2nd nova and the price of petrol is killing me anywaylol

He has rust though! Respray needed.

Looks good mate. I'd certainly bin the splitter. :)
