MK2 Nova Hatch Project

[nath2905]

i always wanted a nova even before i brought my corsa, but at the time there was none about in my price range, then a few months back at work next door brought this one.. and i knew he would never do it as it would cost him to much so i end up with it,
it looks a bit rough but now its stripped it looks much better, i have a new drivers wing, lower door repair panel for one side the other shall have a repair panel made from sheet metal as i cant get the other side, i have a arch repair panel,
it also needed a screen which i have sourced too,
not sure how far i am going with it yet, or what colour, as if it goes back red its a night mare look after, so i have had a few idea off people like dark purple or brown,
as the photos show the floor is good, but i havent started bashing at it yet, the archs look ok two have had plates one is terrible but the other is not too bad, thats alls i can think of for now, ideas and thoughts welcome :)
and theres the corsa at the bottom :thumb:

Nova looks fixable, love your corsa colour really suits it :cool:. Purple could look good, good luck with the build :thumb:.

Surprised you're not putting the whole repair panel on with the nasties that usually hide behind the rear arches.

[nova_niek]

Wow! You don't hang about. Seeing a lot of improvement throughout the pics. Keep it up! :thumb:

[nath2905]

Cheers... and didn't put it all in as only the bottom corner was rotten the rest is solid

[jafanan]

[Rickyb]

[nath2905]

[Rickyb]

Very muchos likes.

[Richy12]

1 thing is for sure, you dont hang about. great work

[Benn]

Gotta say, if your leaving it on the stands, id put them on the chassis rails. As they will bend the sill (looks like the front one is)
Looks like a nice bit a build going on... Shame you didn't leave the under side red...

[nath2905]

right people....things have changed for the worst... this has to go...it is now back on standard suspension and and wheels... the floor is painted along with the archs (purple)... pictures will be added if needed...it has all interior bits with it and looms etc... just no engine as i planned to change it to a bigger one... viewing is welcome... im in stoke on trent.... offers please i have a rough figure this owes me quiet a bit, i arnt expecting it all back just a bit of something
