I've just bundled overlol wondered where everyone had gone:thumb:

Should have been a member of PNG years ago but my SR was off the road so didn't bother:roll: maybe shold have done!

Tried posting a pic but not permitted until 15 posts have been made, so will post some pics soon

I've owned her one year, and never stopped smiling when driving her:D

Car should be at most major Vauxhall events next year and will be on display at the Classic Car exhibition at the NEC 9-11th November

Hi mr royston.

i find it's always easier to be realistic with project deadlineslol by the time it's done it will most definately be a classic! The critics don't worry me , ( to those concerned, put your car where your mouth is i say:p lol ) there'll always be some, it'll just be built to a good original spec, nothing along the lines of rich's concourse build.

[John]

dec, do you have any pics from when you first bought it?

[Steve]

Welcome royston, I see you've found us! lol

Only just noticed yesterday that pvgs gone! Bit of a shame but tbh theres been more chatting in a morgue than on there the last few months! lol

John h- have you done much to your sport so far? dont think ive seen a project page on it yet.

[Royston]

hows the 1.3sr cuming alone?

Finally received a spigot bearing, so things can start to progress, been stuck since April!!

She will be finished over the winter and out next year!!!

Sport was a dealer kit though wasn't it? The stickers, carbs, air box etc came in the boot. So its possible a sport didn't have the weber carbs fitted and was still on the pierburg jobbie.


no stickers either so really a c plate sr
Sport was built upon a base model, not the SR.

[Steve]

Good point RJ, I knew carbs came in the boot but thought the stickers would have been applied.:confused:

[sport]

Rumour has it the graphics were fitted at the docks.

[NOV4_SPORT]

the third sport on the right is mine, the pic is from this years P.V, i was wondering where the sport section had gone to from the old site, will need to get myself payed up.

iain

[Novasport]

Rumour has it the graphics were fitted at the docks.

I think it was only the trial stickers that were applied at the docks to see which they liked.
The decals were applied at the dealers, I remember speaking to a guy in the trade a few years back that applied some for a local dealer back in the day.
Remember these cars would be probably covered in protective wax until being delivered to the dealers.

[novacabrio]

Stickers came supplied in the boot with the sport kit, not all cars came with them aswell!!
