That is SWEET!
Get it tidyed up, remove the vinyl on the door bottoms, stick some nice old skool rims on it (Irmscher 15" cross spokes if you can find 'em) and it's look awesome!
Fcuk flip paint and pearls with 10 coats of metalflake in 'em - get back to basics with the Old Skool look - look how well it suits MK1 Golfs etc etc no reason why the same can't be applied to early Nova's

Good find Burgo!
:D

04-05-05, 08:41 PM
Sell off the Civic or Nova? I take it you mean Nova? Thats a shame not puttin the XE in mate. :(

burgo
04-05-05, 08:52 PM
yeah sell the nova theres no way i can afford to have two cars on the road and i would have no where to keep it

NovaloadedAgain
04-05-05, 08:57 PM
So with no XE what else are you looking to do with it whilst its in your possesion? If you do alittle bit of old skool styling I dont think it'll be hard to sell later.

burgo
04-05-05, 09:02 PM
So with no XE what else are you looking to do with it whilst its in your possesion? If you do alittle bit of old skool styling I dont think it'll be hard to sell later.what you mean do abit of old skool styling its as old skool as they come. plus im not gonna do anything with it no point really

blimey - a blast from the past!

I went out with a lass who owned an A reg Nova 1.2. A113 NHG - never forget it - reason I love Novas so much. Theres plenty of room in the back (nudge nudge wink wink say no more!)

Remember when some tosspot in a fiesta backed into her and the old style 1 piece bumper totally crumpled the fiestas boot right in - all the nova had damage wise was a wee cracked number plate.

Ah - fond memories...
