I'm soon to start the long and laborious task of rebuilding my nova and I'll be needing many an obscure part. Now it was 10 years since I ripped my car to bits and back then getting new parts wasn't a hassle but now!:roll:

For example I'm after a new tank and fuel sender with associated gaskets pipes etc. Any gen? Links to good sites?

I've heard Opel classic parts been banded about anyone got links to there site or phone numbers?

Many thanks in advance. :thumb:

The guy at the local parts desk just looks at me blankly when I mention novas...

Fuel tanks are still avalible, some on ebay depending which one you needs, senders are hard to get hold of new, I got one from autovaux a while ago for a spi tank tho, maybe try them

Gsi tanks are hard to get new, replica tanks can be bought on German eBay and shipped here no problem and come with the rubber gasket for the sender, a GSI sender is a different story, not available anywhere, best bet would be a good 2nd hand one
