I've bought another Nova lol

Currently have Rexy's ghey-blue saloon outside on the trailer still, as I'm trying to figure out how to get it off... lmfao!

Massive thankyous to Dar for taking time out from washing his hair and making the trip to the exceptionally cold north with me :D :thumb: And thanks to Riggy for the teacake lol

BTW it does have a few flakes of Mexico Red left on it, so I'm happy lol

Yes, remove Rexy's pants which appear to be stuffed in the rust hole on the back end lol lol lol

I need to have a look tomorrow and figure out what bits I need to get it back in one piece. There's a 1.6 engine on fleabay at the moment I'm keeping an eye on for temporary use, eventually I'll have an XE in there.

lol, how low is the back end! I do love novas with the 'no rear springs' mod lol

Shafts are here when you want them, also got a 1.2 spi if you want a temporary engine lol

Rexy
19-11-06, 07:27 PM
What a ghey car, its ugly would look miles better in mexico red. Baby blue cars are for gays.

Look after it pal, you have the paint code etc etc and if your stuck for a nova saloon donor car give me a shout lol.

Oh and it looking kinda girly lol with an xe dropped in there, it adds to the "what the F***K factor :D"

XE shafts? :D

Getting it on the trailer was fun... getting it off was surprisingly easy. PUUUSSSH *gruuunch* "Its ground out... Ok, push harder!"

Jack
19-11-06, 09:52 PM
How much d'you want for it Ben?

Stoo
19-11-06, 09:52 PM
What sorta bits you in need of jack, ive got all sorts!

Ben
19-11-06, 09:58 PM
How much d'you want for it Ben?

Depends on 2 factors:

1. Wether you want to take it out yourself?
2: Wether its raining or not (obviously if you dont want to take it out)?

lol

Shouldn't be too hard to get out... /famous last words lol

Stu, at the moment I'm just after standard bits really - fuel tank/lines/pump, exhaust, springs, brake servo, wipers and mechanism, mk2 interior... I'm strapped for cash at the mo so just on the scrounge really for cheap stuff or bits that people would otherwise be chucking out.

Ben
19-11-06, 10:13 PM
Well tbh you are welcome to take as much as you like off the car, basically a complete car with no front engine/running gear.

BUT you need to be quick a its awaiting the crusher!

Jack
19-11-06, 10:19 PM
Sounds just what I'm after - Have you got a date/time for crushing it?

Ben
19-11-06, 10:20 PM
When the bloke finally turns up this week with his big lorry, was meant to be here Monday last week then weds then Friday so death is imminent!

If that falls through RJ i have a GSi dash here and i'm not far from you.

20-11-06, 02:03 PM
Jack, if you coming up to get some bits from Ben then give me a shout. I'll lend a hand and a brew.

Jack
20-11-06, 02:04 PM
GSi one would be ideal. How much though? :D

I'm heading up to see Ben tomorrow afternoon, so I'll be hopefully coming back with an armfull of bits and bobs to get the saloon looking a bit more presentable.

I put a post up on CCUK this morning saying about it... might have to bring it along to a meet with them once its built and embarrass the odd celica lol

20-11-06, 02:20 PM
Make me an offer!!

Have some other bits & pieces around if you need, drop me a PM with a list and i'll see what i can do.
