Car Make/model: Vauxhall nova sport
Engine Size:
Registration Year: 1985
Mileage: 34000
Description:
Nova sport 1985 rolling shell all body panels included
Genuine sport
When buying this car few months ago I had the plans to put this back to its former beauty before being a rally car having looked at all the different things I will need that I haven’t already got I just haven’t got the funds to do this car. After having to buy an engine, wind screen, interior, steering rack and column, gaskets for the engine etc I’ve just run out of money and time.
This car has been completely under sealed and has very little rust as shown in the pictures (only the back panel) behind the back bumper.
In its former life this car was a rally car and as a result has had most of its interior taken out although bits of it still exist such as dash and door cards.
For an extra £350 I have a complete sr/sport interior that can be included that is mint I have This car has done 34000 miles since brand new and has some paperwork to back this up.
A13 SPT number plate worth £700 been offered that on one of those internet sites hence the final price
Comes with 1984 1.2 carb engine all gaskets changed and has only done 29,000 miles with a K’n’N filter also.
Things included in the sale
1.2 carb engine with K’n’N filter (not fitted)
Nova sport rolling shell
Front Window screen
Steering rack and column (already fitted)
C20xe astra 256mm Big brake kit (fitted) although has no brake lines as they were in the car instead of being on the outside – will include for extra price
Complete wiring loom
Rally red mud flaps ;)
Blue upgraded engine mounts
Up rated rally suspension (coilovers) on the fronts
Lowering springs on the back
Not included!.. richbrook steering wheel and cesaros

Needs test but tax has to have expired no more than 6 months iirc, I transfered a plate from a bus with no tax;) but with mot
Would suggest putting the plate on retention ASAP, cost £105 before it's too late

Just to add to this. I can refit the engine/gearbox, bumpers, bonnet, wings, loom, lights etc for the buyer if needed. I can also have the windscreen fitted for an extra price of around £20 on top of price of car.
With everything i have got to go on it will be nearly be a complete car. Only things it will need to be a "Sport" are-
-Interior, (AKA Seats and carpets , It has brown dash, door cards, and side trims) .....I can include a biege set of seats etc, just not all brown
-1.3 Engine , Original Sport Gearbox is included though.
Thats all it would realistically take to make this a nova sport. I know its not factory original but come on, its 25years old, they all need some refreshing right (aka bigger brakes, suspension etc.)

as a few people have asked me what parts come with the car and what parts they will need to put it back together. i have decided to include my nova saloon in the sale for the same price of £1200 so that you will have all the parts to make a cracking nova out of the two cars. the saloon does have some rust ect but the parts are good and its all together
for more information on both cars and the stuff included give me a call on 07794367920 and well have a propper talk
cheers tom

£20 lol
let me know if you want to sell the doorcards on their own
CavalierTurbo
03-05-10, 09:47 PM
lol no to £20 and loads of people have said about the door cards ideally dont want to seperate it all
this is just a suggestion, why not just sell the sport on its own? and advertise the other nova elsewhere or wack it on ebay.
if i was buyin the sport because thats the car i want i dont want some other one thrown in where i have to find room for that,
just my opinion ",
CavalierTurbo

it can go with or without but most people were saying they didnt have the bits to make it a compleate car so i offered the other one too..

oh right i didnt see that bit, i was just thinking that for some people it would be a little harder trying to find room for 2 nova's when all they want is one. lol :thumb:

ye i know hence if they want both they can both if not then just the sport or just the loon :D
