please for the love of our sanity use normal font and colour.

When you sya barely has a front end, you mean rusted? it sounds like bit of a skip for a project but then youre description might be a bit poor...

No offense but stop acting as if you being a female as ANYTHING to do with the amount of help you receive. I doubt most members give a sh*t about your gender.

girls can also be interested in cars. my boyfriend told me you lot took novas seriously!!

Yes I f*cking well know girls can like cars, my girlfriend is interested in cars and modifying thankyou. However when she signs up to a forum for help she doesn't start saying "OMG I HAVE BOOBZ HELP ME I CARNT DO ANYFINK BCOZ I'M A FEEMALE I HAV A BOYFREND" like you have just done.

oh come on. get off your high horsey.

Its a forum, like ALL forums there is piss taking, and banter. If you dont like it hit the report thread button.

Being female means nothing as far as I can tell as to the advice you get back, so stop making out like we are being utter cnuts to you, as we arent!

if you use the forums correctly (ie styling for bodywork, technical for engines, gearboxes, brakes etc) then you will get on here fine :)

RTFM, thats how I learnt computers.

Reminds me of when alex went onto club polo or whatever the fcuk they're called. They got their knickers in a right twist that a girl had joined (seriously, they make draper look like a prude), and spent most of their time asking for - and then ploughing her photobucket for - pics of her breasts. I think only one or two actually answered her questions, the rest were too busy rubbing one out. Looking back on it, it was very amusing; but neither her or myself intend to be going back there again any time soon lol

Andy_L
02-10-07, 02:42 PM
been on ebay! but get side tracked by chrome engine parts. i havent even got an engine yet but i want to buy parts for it! and i have read the part about pics but still dont understand. sorry!!! do i just plug my camera in and hope for the best? only know when the computer tells me what to do and when.

Go to www.photbucket.com (http://www.photbucket.com) and register for an account and it will take you through what to do.

Ouch! That's fairly bad. As Mr Jeff said, check the rest of the shell very thoroughly, if it's anywhere near as bad as that it may not be worth trying to save it, sorry.

I did read the thread, trev & she specifically said the car that you bought her, the one with an engine & wheels, & in the photos was absolutely mint.
she was not referring to the poultry house that you got her first.

im not gonna read through it all but for the age of the car it is in good nick
the hole is obviously accident damage untreated its the only rot on the car
as i said, the other arches are mint and the scrape on the rear door leading to the back arch sort of gives it away a little, as everyone knows/most people a scratch can turn into a hole in no time untreated
im not here to fight about details but has anyone seen a nova this tidy with its full history all mot's 2 owners and 36,000 miles for ?100

Look, trev, we've seen totally mint original nova's with less than 10000 miles on here that people have picked up for less than ?100. They have been owned by old people & looked after & garaged all of their life.

By the way, a scratch on the door doesn't make the arch rot off, its just how gm made them.

The car is ok, but the rust in the engine bay will need addressing.

A service history is just that, a list of when the oil was changed. it does not tell you how the car was treated. the engine on a 5 year old car with 150k on it will be a lot better than the engine of a 36k car that has averaged 2k per year for 18 years. it will not have done enough warm running & will have spent lots of time doing nothing. If it has had its services every 6 months then that will help.

I can qualify the above statement. my g reg nova had less than 8000 on the clock & a 'full service history' when I bought it. I tried to run it & the engine breathed so much & I couldn't get all 4 plugs to fire at once. the bores were glazed up the valve seals were hardened because they had dried out, & the petrol had got so old that it had coated the carb innards.

Trev, the rust in the engine bay will probably turn into holes with a small tap of a hammer, the hole in the wheelarch can be repaired or fit a new wheelarch panel.

It's not in bad nick Trev but not great. My advice is to give it a good clean and then give all spots of rust a good hard poke and see how bad they really are. You'll then have some idea of how much work needs to be done.

The hole could be accident damage, more likely just like all other Nova's the rear arches have rusted.

It's a decent base too start with (has far less rust than mine does) so good luck with it.
