[bigbened]

noooooo dont kill another nova there all gonna be gone soon

[ANDYRACER]

Pick up it you pansy!!
Look how cool Ste is photoshop looks

[paul james]

It would be a shame to take an angle grinder to such a well finished car. If you really want a pick up why not get yourself another cheap saloon to do it on.

[Lynsey]

I didnt say turn a rotten saloon into a pick up, you can pick up rust free saloons for a couple of hundred since they are undesireable to most people.
Just seems a shame to hack up a lovely finished nova to me

[Jack]

First you paint it the wrong colour, then you want to chop it up?! Are you trying to give me heart failure?! lol

[Martin]

if you do it make it different!

[paul james]

How about extending the roof back to make it into a 'fastback' nova, now that would be original. Unless you want to make a pickup to actually put stuff in the back of it.

[Philsutton]

i wouldnt waste a decent 2 door saloon imo

[dave_rand]

estate? im sure i aint seen a nova estate would look differant

[db_1.2]

Ive seen one, once, get the escort estate 3 door back and job done, i think that would be a lot better tbh

[General Baxter]

rexy if your doing an estate, iv got a back end of a 3 door lol

[Ricky G]

i say pickup! so what if its been done before! it would look the dog's goolies imo. i say go for pickup and what engine has it got?

DO IT :p

[Rexy]

lads lads lads... the shell was only ?200. I sprayed it myself hence it looks so clean. I work in a bodyshop for those of you that don't know. I've already spoken to my boss and i can spray it whenever i like. He laffed when i said i was turning it into a pick-up.

Anyway's... I've decided I'm going to go for it.

I need another run about tho, as this isnt exaclty a weekend jobbie, not to make it look any good anyways :thumb: saying that, the saloon looks alright and that was a weekender. Pmsl

[db_1.2]

I think you should put the money into making it rwd really, now that would be the shizzle!lol

[Welsh Dan]

RWD slammed estate :D

[db_1.2]

RWD slammed estate :D

Indeed

[db_1.2]

make a jacuzzi in the back of it... at the shows all the ladies will wanna get in = baps out = happy lads!!

Na fish pond, i like fish, nice to look at:)

[Riggy]

[General Baxter]

[Nick]

[burgo]

if your gonna do it do it properly and what happened to that one twag??

[Matt2107]

Rexy dunno if you saw my earlier post.

Buy the next ****ed sola on ebay and chop the roof off... turn it round so the electric roof works backwards then weld it on the back of the pick up so you have an electric load cover. The last ****ed sola went for ?62 on ebay.

[Rexy]

lol crazy ideas...

[Jack]

Amphibious Nova, that could be amusing

[craig green]

Na, think you should try gte front bumper though:thumb:

Nah Dont do it. Fit a Mantzel chin spoiler to the mk1 valance.

Btw Dont make a pick up, unless you are a landscape gardener or summat. I thought pick ups need mowers & rakes hanging out the back.

[burgo]

let me help you make it in to an estate

[draper]

yeah estate would be quality !!

[craig green]

Aye. Old VW Polos (estate type hatch things) can look really neat when done nicely. Little baby T5 replica Ive seen before.

Quite a challenge though.

[Saloony]

yeah estate would be quality !!
On jov there was a link to a nova estate, some may remember it.

[Saloony]

Fit a Mantzel chin spoiler to the mk1 valance.
Pics??

[draper]

on a similar theme, there was a mk1 golf pick-up round my way yesterday, must of been running 13s (wheel size, not 1/4time lol) and was nearly scraping the floor, looked quality !!

[m.d.]

has to be pickup, went in my mates mk1 golf pickup last night, only a diesel but its got to be the best thing ive been in for ages, so light, so useful and looks the dogs, my DH mountain mike fit right in the bay without even taking the wheels off, madness

[Rexy]

lol... it has to be done... it really has to.

once im paid up with some debts im saving up for a 306 D turbo, then i can do whatever i want with the saloon :D

[Tazzy]

i dont think you should chop that one up rexy, its a good shell, only the other day i was thinking about taking my mates 5-door saloon from him and getting my bro to attack it with a angle grinder, lol

either that one, or his 3-door cabriolet saloon

lol, dont think ill bother now!

how bout a limosene style nova?

[Rexy]

[Jack]
