i kno it looks a bit shitty but ive got a brand spanker rear panel to go on just gotta decide wot to do bout the chassis legs

[nova23]

I had the same problem, went to the scrapy and they cut the rear section of a mint nova and i cut parts of it and used them on my nova. The end result is alot neater that patchin up all that rot.

[Dicko]

is there anything solid to weld onto :lol:

[Euan]

ach a bit of fibreglass and sum sawdust and you'll be fine ! :D

[Dave]

is it worth bothering with? that looks very much fcuked!

[Ste_Nova]

the problem there is someone has got the legs well to hot while welding then not put any rust proofer on afterwards

[burgo]

i dont quite get wot u mean ste the old legs are rotten and the drivers side one is already chopped off and dicko yes its only the legs abit of the floor and the rear panel which i have got a new one i would like new legs as well but cant find em ne where and can u get new boot floors

[nova23]

Like I said your best bet is to go to a scrappy and ask them to cut out the boot floor and legs of a good nova then use the panels you need. Then plenty of wax oil, job done.

[Ste_Nova]

when welding up the floor they have bbq all the rustproofing on the legs

[burgo]

they bein vauxhall ste??? is tat why they all rot then

[beatin u]

if you cant find good chassis legs in the scrapy you can always get box section from a steel stockist.

thats what i made my chassis with, custom jobby for my turrets :lol: 8) :bday:

[burgo]

that is wot i was thinkin was to get some u section or top hat and use that

[Mark]

How much did you pay for the car, cos for me that's new shell time.

[burgo]

i paided ?80 and the cost of getting a new shell i could repair this easily it is only gonna cost me te price of the chassis legs to repair it

[Ste_Nova]

they bein vauxhall ste??? is tat why they all rot then

who ever did the old repair plating the floor

[burgo]

dunno but its pretty terible aint it

[nova23]

[burgo]
