[staggy_gsi]

Ahh i seee! You get them fairly local?? What sort of shape is the red one in (structurally)?

1st dibs on the yellow one when andy spits his dummy out and puts it up for sale lol lol lol

[Spudly]

Dunno, weve not looked at the red one really, just sort of wanting it again as a bit of a sideline money maker, theyre local (ish) but the drivers rear arch on the red one is definately fudged though lol

[burgo]

Do I spy a rare spoiler on the red one

[scott.parker]

Is that sr an old car of rexys?

[Spudly]

Do I spy a rare spoiler on the red one



You do indeed mate :d





Is that sr an old car of rexys?


Not unless he moved to Hull about twenty or so years back no, its always been a local car, came from a dealership just outside of Hull near the coast :thumb:

[Nova00]

there cannot be many of those left

[Novasport]

Do I spy a rare spoiler on the red one

Yes, a GMS one like the one Edd has on his Sport. Lyndsey had one on her China Blue one aswell.

[Novasport]

THAT'S the reasoning for that purchase last week lol
Yep genuine.

What was the purchase?:tard:lol

[Spudly]

Iirc he bought a thatcham build manual, showing how to unpick and repanel correctly and how they were built originally, he said he laughed when he got to the section on the 'corrision protection' lol

[mowgli]

so andy, i reckon that sr is lighter than colin's hill climber..... just how near the coast was it??

[Spudly]

Quite a way away actually, its much nearer the coast where it is now lol

[Benn]

E reg mk1 red SR... Now that takes me back...

[Novasport]

Iirc he bought a thatcham build manual, showing how to unpick and repanel correctly and how they were built originally, he said he laughed when he got to the section on the 'corrision protection' lol

Ohhh yeah, I remember!

[mowgli]

Quite a way away actually, its much nearer the coast where it is now lol it looks like jacques cousteau used it to commute

[Novasport]

E reg mk1 red SR... Now that takes me back...

Thinking it should have the grey check but looks like rainbow trim :(

[Spudly]

It is indeed, i was hoping it mightve been dogmuck brown, but alas :cry:

[Edd]

A mate had a red E reg SR years back and it had rainbow trim, another mate had a white E reg SR and that had grey check trim, think it was a sort of crossover year

[Novasport]

Yes it was on the changeover, they took the check over on the facelift for a short while for some reason.

[Andy]

No dummies will be being spat with this stagg lol Only that french pile of utter fukking scrap that i STILL have the embarrassment of saying i own.

[mowgli]

how come you can't sell the 205???? they are a classic you know

[DAFTJOHN]

Good choice!

[Andy]

how come you can't sell the 205???? they are a classic you know
Because "it isnt original" apparently,all i have had is timewasters.
Almost sent it back with my mate rich to be weighed in this afternoon,i arent even kidding.
I wish i had never bought it!
Its currently being broke up for spares now.
If it dont sell,i shall do the usual andy trick of pouring loads of self tappers into the engine and pissing all over it after smashing it up with a shovel LOL

[Archie]

Yes, very cool!

am i missing something here??? just how not original is it?? new tyres, wipers etc???

[Andy]

Cos its had sh1t painted according to the anaraks on the 205 forum.
And because its a home build devalues it apparently.
Personally i have never heard such sh1t

[mk1nova_rich]

Shame about the 205 Andy :( good luck with the Nova...if its built to anything like the standard of the 205 it will be a cracker :thumb:

[Andy]

Thanks Rich.
It will certainly be more of a challenge.
But i know nova's very well and what goes where,i bought that bag of scrap in bits.

[turbojolt]

[Andy]

Yes mate

[Andy]

Read this,look how nice and tidy this is.....
Bear in mind phase 1's are much more sought after than mine....

[mowgli]

[Andy]

hahahaha was that into the engine?? lol
good effort!

[tahir868]

Awesome, I wanted to buy it when Spud put it up on Facebook!

[Spudly]

Its fate was sealed originally as i was going to break it to make a few quid and weigh the shell, but Andy requested it to save, cant say no to a fellow addict, so his way it went lol

[Andy]

Cant weigh a mustard sr.
A sport,yeah definately but not a mustard sr lol

[Nick J]

Oh dear andy what have you done buying another Lol........ You've deffo picked one to save! Not many of them about now as I'm sure your aware. Be great to see how you get on with it.

Nick.

[Alex J]

got to big block it, and chuck the ****ty 1.3

[Pistol Pete]

Cos its had sh1t painted according to the anaraks on the 205 forum.
And because its a home build devalues it apparently.
Personally i have never heard such sh1t

:tard::confused::roll:

Having seen your work on the 205, i look forward to a build thread for this one.

[Spudly]

Having seen your work on the 205, i look forward to a build thread for this one.



So do i, there is a hell of a lot of work needed on this one, a hell of a lot, ill help where i can but all the weld/panel work will be down to Andy, an unenviable task for sure :eek:

But i knows what Andy is like and he has a skill when it comes to cars, look at my nova for an example, its as good as it is because of Andrew :d

[steviegsi]

Hard to beat a mustard sr. Thumbs up for big blocking it :).... No doubt there will be a few h8rz though.

[staggy_gsi]

If ya could ever do with another pair of hands mate dont forget im in the same town lol

[Spudly]

If ya could ever do with another pair of hands mate dont forget im in the same town lol



Thats not a bad idea, although might reinfect you with nova-itis lol

[John]

Cool! :)

[Andy]

If ya could ever do with another pair of hands mate dont forget im in the same town lol
Aye cheers mate
pm me ya number sometime.

[scott.parker]

When your ready to bin that 1.3 let me know.;)

[L14MNP]

Mustard been a good un in it's day loooool

Crack on marra!

[brainsnova]

For some reason I can't picture a mustard sr that's not big blocked lol

[Spudly]

For some reason I can't picture a mustard sr that's not big blocked lol




Dont look here then as the small block is going bye bye lol

[Southie]

Looking forward to seeing major progress of the rebuild, how knackered is the shell?

[Andy]

completely shafted lol

[Southie]

completely shafted lol

lol thought as much lol
Your going to be needing plenty of help of Rich and Bazil with parts I reckon lol

[kent14sr]

Are the inner wings red?

Everything is repairable - and this will be well worth the effort, I dare say it will be worth significantly more than most Sports being such a sought after and rare colour!

[Spudly]

Its got a red nearside inner wing as it had damage to the corner on that side in the past and had a full strut top from another nova welded in!

[Southie]

It's yellow on the car check so it must have had replacements I reckon, the bonnet looks 50% replaced as well lol

Edit: too slow lol
