[L33 LEG]

All excellent examples. Can't beat a white gsi imo even if they do look the same lol

[scorge01]

It's like any nova tho most routes that look good have been tried over and over so its not copying anymore as if it was we would all be copying :)

[L33 LEG]

Copying or not I'd love my car to be the same as yours and the other white ones!

[scorge01]

Yours looks a really clean example don't think it will take much an yours will defo be finished before mines.lol

[L33 LEG]

Hopefully this time next week it will be done lol will just do little touches to it after that. I very nearly bought your shell when Wilson had it for sale, one of the nicest around!

[scorge01]

Yeah it is an extremely clean shell only reason I actually got it was because was working down there an thought worth a look went an looked an thought wow that's clean I'm having it :)

[L33 LEG]

I remember the build of it and knew it was a good one! Knew I should of bought it lol

[scorge01]

Yeah only rust I ever found was some under/behind dash and tiny bits on splash guards so really happy with it once engine bay gets re done will be chuffed

[L33 LEG]

lol is that one simple enough for you Ricky? ^

Just clean it up, spray the bumpers black yourself and get some Cesaros and it'll look nice. Have you picked the car up yet?

[Rickyb]

Yessss now were talking 8v craigs was going tobe my fave but i do love balleys and that rally one is the nutts.
Any more pics of that one simon?

[SimonTW]

I've not sorry. It was in Total Vauxhall recently. User name of the owner is Franny I think.

Also used to love this back when I had my very first Nova.

I still think Novas look pretty good with the smoothed tailgate!

[L33 LEG]

That looks nice, very similar (or even maybe it) to K172AGS which is now that light green colour. Used to love smooth boots on white novas with black bumpers!

[L33 LEG]

My old white nova. These bring back memories lol

[skud52]

my old car

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v482/skud52/nova10.jpg

i see a trend forming here

[L33 LEG]

I used to own this!

Seriously? I bought it after it had been round the local town. Must of had 7 owners in 5 or so years and the earliest I knew of it was when it came from a place called longridge. Any old photos or info would be great :) used to be a minter before one of the owners chucked it into a wall and painted it with emulsion lol I scrapped it as it was proper rusty!

[Rickyb]

Hmm it seems i may have forgot about this lol il have a proper look threw the pics when im on my computer tomoz

Where's pepe

[Rickyb]

DAMN! i think ive now gone from not being in to the gsi stuff to now loving the white body grey bumpers and no skirts look, but i think i may go with the standard front
bumper but with a nice spliter. and i cant make my mind up between white wheels and grey lol.
David Kedens i really love the look of that if only it had a nice spliter lol
ide just like to thank everyone who took time to post in here :thumb:
Rick

[Benn]

White wheels do sometimes look nice on a white Nova.

[MK999]

If you go grey wheels and grey bumpers the bottom half of the car all kinda disappears into itself tbh. Wheels make a car, should stand out against everything else. White on white still manages that imo.

[Rickyb]

when i said grey wheels i was meaning 14inch sr steelies with grey centre and a silver rim like on dans td. and i think ide like a nice pair of white sills tobe showing lol
rick

[MK999]

Think dark grey alloys and polished lips of some sort :) That would look fairly awesome with the grey bits all colour matched imo. And you don't need split rims to have polished lips.

[Benn]

And you don't need split rims to have polished lips.

Makes life a lot easier tho...

Get an Espace one from the same era IMO, slightly deeper and look better.

Thanks for the old pics of myne guys, there's some more,
And lastly my fav nova
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/dan16v/white38br.jpg

[Benn]

Shame it never got finished Dan.

[dan16v]

Hi mate, It did get finished, It was live road mapped, I then drove it from Berkshire back to southampton, with my mate driving my M3! The nova went past it like it was stood still!lol
Only thing I never finished was the overall look I wanted with the standard tailgate etc.
I then also took it apart to clean up and it would not run again, by that point I'd had enough.
I still have the money in the bank from that car, hopefully this year my escort cosworth will be restored and I can put the cash to good use.
I still look out for my old car on forums/eBay!

[kevster]

It was broke up dan I bleave , I wish I cancelled my trip to USA and got this off you big time lol.

[dan16v]

Hi Kev, yes it was broken for parts, I'm still tempted to stash a shell if I found one cheap.:)
Although I have an e60 m5 at the moment, that's a great all rounder so not sure i would need a nova for the speed thrills these days

[novadave24]

love the k reg nova :)

[Rickyb]

Any more of these?
