Recently Purchased 1991 Vauxhall Nova Saloon With a x16xe lump ''ongoing project''

[Jack22Wilson]

Hi All,

Im new to this site and hoping to meet some new people and possibly meet up next year when were out and about.

Ive recently purchased a 1991 Vauxhall Nova Saloon With a fully re-conditioned X16XE Engine Sat Up Front, as you will see from the photos the engine bay has been finished in a nice minty green colour which tops it off and works well with the white paint. Ive had to replace majority of the rear end underneath due to being rusty and some places rotten. The previous owner clearly tidied the front up forgetting about the rear lol.

This is my first Nova but I will be keeping it for a while and hope to have it back to its former glory in time for Performance Vauxhall Show at Santa Pod in 2015.

If anyone has any of the following parts id be interested and if you could drop me a pm that would be great:

- Mk2 original front bumper
- Astra GTE Clocks
- Astra GTE Steering Wheel
- Nova GTE Interior/Seats
- Set of Coilovers

I think the gsi bumper looks loads better than the standard mk2 so I wouldn't change it personally
