Guys,


I'm going to be having the car re-sprayed at the end of this season, I'm toying with the idea of then having it stickered up as a works Rally nova replica.

Basically I'm after as many pictures/posters or photos of as many works Gsi's as possible for my sticker guy to have a look at.

Anyone have anything I can borrow (Will be returned honestly!!) or know of any books/posters or anything with all round shots of one??

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Russell

In My mind I know what the colour scheme was but can't find any magazine features or photos of any works cars to show My sticker man.

I can't even find any on the web!!!

Any help is appreciated!!

the nova competition build manual has loads of picks in it, one of my mates has his stickered up to replicate the works colour scheme, i'll ask where he got his done.

Good man mate. I promised myself that if i ever get a White Nova that i'll do it up in the Nova Sport Colours and stick a set of Revolution % spokes or Super lights on it, no bigger than 13's either!! Love the idea. What Colour's you car Russ?

i know what you mean, the dealer rally novas used to have thick red, yellow and blue stripes across the bonnet and down the wings

i was going to do that with my nova as they look really good , can't find any pics though, there was a rally rep nova in TV a few months ago

If your going to do it, make sure its an exact replica with the vinyl the correct size etc. So many replicas are done cheap, rushed or not paid enough attention to - including the TV feature car, and they look a million miles away from the real thing.

that poster was in total vauxhall as a 1 page photo, i emailed tham and asked for a high res version of the pic so i could make a poster. they said they wern't allowed to give the pic's out but they would do a poster in the mag. 2 months later it was in. i have mine up in the garage

I remember getting a book from the library on Vauxhall/Opel cars, all the sport and performance, Proto Types and variations of all including the Irmisher Cars, it was Published in 88 or something and had some serious old school appeal. Can for the life of me remember what its called though! :x
