Barn find

[farmertom]

Its a 1.2 with 70k on the clock one lady owner from new, been in her barn for 11 or 12 years i have service history for the car aswell. My plans are too rebuild it to standard, use it a bit and take it too a few shows. As my other nova which i should put up some pics of will be the toy.

Looks pretty clean considering, next step to see if it starts?

[Spudly]

That really is a barn find, looks like its fared pretty well, have you had it running yet, fresh fuel and maybe a set of plugs, decent battery/charge and it should go no bother!

[farmertom]

It does run quite well surprisingly, i drove it off the trailer once i got it home! Fuel lines from tank are perished so put the lines from carb into a gallon can after dribbling a lil bit down the carb with choke on she fired up. Going to wash it tomorrow so will post some more pics then. Spud 11 or 12 years dependant on when it drove into the barn last tax disc is 2002. It was originally flame red aswell haha

[Novasport]

Wow, a REAL barn bind and not one of the Ebay so called barn finds, ie its been in my garage on SORN for 12 months lol

[Novaload_Nick]

That's a great find, it's going to be fun trying to get all that crap off it lol

[raf24]

I love to see genuine things like this,hidden away for all that time :)

[Benn]

That is very very cool.

[maddogdaz666]

How cool would it be if you could MOT it and drive it around like that lol

[istf]

Time capsule! :) I hope will be saving her!

[pastry]

wow nice! Looking forward to a picture after an wash, scrub and polisch! :-)

[tahir868]

Excellent find, PM sent too :thumb:

My nova had been off the road for 10 years when I bought it, the inside of the tank was coated in rust due to condensation etc, so its worth going over the whole system tbh.

Looks very solid though, nice find.

[DAVIDKEDENS]

Love finds like this, dead cool.

Be checking this.

[Ernie]

[farmertom]

cheer chaps i will post some more pics on saturday once its had a wash an polish. il try get it up on the ramp to have a proper look under neath it. from what i can see just pocking my head under it looks pretty good. but first i must get the arches welded up on my other nova first then i can focus on this one

cheers

[jimbob-mcgrew]
