can i buy brand new doors for a nova and where from thanks

[Connor]

No BUT they do come up very rarely 2nd hand,
best to try and source a mint set not brand new

[reevie1987]

think you can only buy brand new door skins now

Couldn't you get the left hand door still up until a while ago?

Just do some digging mate, someone will have abrand new set (NOS) they will part with for the right cash.

Left doors you may get from Europe but postage is difficult as Keith found out several times!
Right doors are NLS everywhere.
Judging by recent sales new right doors go for £300+ and left doors £150+
Good luck! Unusually used doors dont seem to do a great deal of money

Unusually used doors dont seem to do a great deal of money

No doubt due to the trend of people sourcing new ones.

IMO the main issue for doors rotting is that when repeatedly slammed shut the bead of seam sealer along the bottom crack open & lets in moisture. Hence why drivers side rot out the most.

[Novasport]

I think its mainly due to the lack of rust protection and blocked drain holes. Water gets inbetween the door skin and frame then rots out.
My Sport doors were waxoyled when the car was new and they are mint. The car was used daily in all weathers up until the mid 90's aswell.

I've opted for some good 2nd hand doors as well for my Nova projects and they've lasted fine with daily use for a few years and there pumped full of Waxoil as well :)

New doors are very hard to get and silly silly money when you could get very good nick 2nd hand ones for a fraction of the price - All depends what your into though
