here are some pics of my nova that i am working on, looking to make it mint, get it running as ive just replaces the valves and then maybe a candy yellow colour, strip it out and make a proper track weapon for road and track use.

well the plan is to keep the orange indicators, remove side bits and add gsi skirts in black, paint candy yellow and black bits at bottom of bumpers, the peco came with car so thats going in time, maybe get a new rear bootsticker that says nova SR 2.0 wen i put the engine in as you can get these stickers made that look standard, im going to keep the car as tidy as i can before i do the respray and then see what happens, to be honest its not worth keeping something like this original as its not exactly a good car compared to cars that people should be keeping original like civic jordans,civic sirs and old classics, but this is a nova that will not be worth anything in the future

car now at garage for MOT - needs new brake cylinders, 2 new tires, ?50 of welding, something to do with the steering rack,no horn and then also needs new alternator, cambelt loosening and something else i cant remember so it will cost a few hundred but at least ill be on the road soon, so i can get a job again after 6 months and then start using wages that i havent used to pay back the MOT/tax/insurance to start modding

sounds like another half decent mk1 sr bites the dust.

everyone to their own, but :tosser:


On the other hand, the more people deface the standard ones, the more the ones that are left standard are worth! :thumb:
