Would love too tbh lol
Doubt it's forsale unless I win the lottery lol
were they buit in mk2 spec? ( i know nuffin about them lol )
Not sure on the mk2, a quick look on corsa-a.com would tell you
Duick's is mk2 iirc
Bazil is naughty lol planted the thought of Spyders in Edd's head again lol
Edit: looking on corsa-a.com the first made them in 1983 so mk1
muhhahahahahah, tis not everyones cup of tea but i knows you like them :)
psst go look at all the asconas and mantas and early cavies etc etc

I think it looks good, but lets face it, driving it will probably be a disappointment. It'll be floppy in the corners & wont turn many heads I shouldnt think.
I would think you would have to worry more about it being floppy if you had the mid engine one lol

I dunno. Atleast the engine is centrally mounted, wheras with front mounted all the weight is at one end.

Have to say that doesn't float my boat at all, not in a million years would I swap your sport for that! I take it they are very rare?

It probably would... but not for the right reasons lol

If I seriously thought about it then no I wouldn't just really like them
Been looking in to get a Spyder for a while, Mark/Novacabrio offered me one for a good price but the lady ko'd the idea lol

I'm sure there would be a few volunteers on here that would hide it for you in thier garages lol.
ive wanted to build a michalak rep for facking years now, i properly love them. and as said it is only mr michalaks that was ever officially mid engine
I already in enough trouble for filling the loft full of nova parts lol let alone buying a car to hide

Same here Burgo, I'm seriously going to look into build a mid engined Michalak rep when the Sports finished.
If you look at the pics of the mid engined one it's has the front chassis legs in the back, very interesting the way it's done IMO
I'll search for some pics
Here's a pic of the mid engine

Awesome the way it's done IMO some so badly needs to do a rep
Not sure how you'd go about getting the roof/engine cover done tho
.... someone else bought the blanking plates you were after mate
engine cover is easy, make a template out of wood/mdf to then take a mould and then finally a fibreglass cover. roof is the hardest bit but i have it pictured in my mind of how to do it lol
It almost looks like he's cut the front end off one nova and welded it in the back of another to create it
........must finish the Sport lol

theyre astra mk1 or mk2 strut tops, not nova ones.....
why thank you:d why dont you give it a bash
theyre astra mk1 or mk2 strut tops, not nova ones.....they probably belong to whatever the engine came out of
why dont you give it a bashi currently have two other projects im not doing and getting another two soon so it will have to wait
4 projects that sounds like you will never be bored hope they are all difrent
yep all different yet all expensive :/
I will start my Michalak rep next year, went to scrap yard today and cut the front end off a mint 5 door for the mid engine mounting shizzle, mum will be happy I'm taking it round hers tomorrow to store it in her garage lol
yep all different yet all expensive :/ are they restorations or mad estate pick ups lol

You sound more like Rich(Novasport) every daylol
are they restorations or mad estate pick ups lol
two restorations, one track car build and the estate will be having major surgery as well lol
it does sound very expensive think ill fucus on getting a car first lol
if anyone does make one... please stick a v6 in it..... it would be soo much fun.
the above is on my list of things i'll do if it win the euro lottery, along with employing 2 lads to drive round in a van putting letter 'I's on all the to let signs they find near where foreign tourists go........

See that michalak is the only car i would ever want in a vauxhall world these days. I know someone who came so close to buying it, The seller has to want to sell her first though.
What the mid engined one ?
