nova van

[novamodman]

hi everyone have picked up a pretty clean nova van basically one owner from new and me am looking at dropping a redtop into it but have been told the engine mounts are in a different position as its a diesel originally is there a kit i can buy to get the engine in can anybody help me cheers andy

its only the front mount, go a scrap yard and cut the mount off the chassis at front of engine bay, and when you weld it in to the van you can weld it so ya dont need to buy the front conversion kit mount

cheers mate abit hard to find in scrappys now tho aint they? dont really want to buy a doner car just to cut that leg out seems abit excessive

you could use one off a corsa if its the same style mount as some have them

not too far away then about hour and half to 2 hours so might see you at some local meets then.
as for the pictures first upload them to photobucket.com which is nice and easy,
once you have them uploaded to photobucket click on the pic you want on here and on the right side of the screen on photobucket there should be an image links box that gives you the different link codes you need,
click on the text in the IMG code box and it will flash up saying 'copied',
then come here write out any text you want with the pic,
then right click here and paste the IMG code from photobucket.

if you write out posts in the advanced reply then you can click preview post to make sure you have the right picture in your post.

i tend to leave a line between pics and text doing this just to give enough spacing.
it might read as being very longwinded but it's simpler than i have explained i'm more of a show guy than a tell or write how to do something but hope this helps

also the good thing with photobucket is that you can get the app on your smartphone then any pics you take with your mobile can be remotely uploaded to your photobucket account and save the messing about with near invisible memory cards and computers. then when you come to your computer to sort pics you can just use photobucket to put picks on here
