Well my nova needed an xe engine from somewhere around 3.5 yrs ago, and it found it in the shape of a mk2 Astra GTE 16v (theres not loads of them about at all these days)

So my nova's had this engine for while now and the idea was to strip the Astra asap and scrap the shell...

Well it did happen, but just took a bit longer then i planed, or my mother would of liked lol...

From this...

Yeah it's true that could of come off, but with it being as cold as it was last week i tried to remove as much as i could (Dar wanted the servo/cylinder)
but after that many years of sat in the rain on the garden it's all rusted up to **** so much i couldn't get any bolts undone so imagine what the rear beam would of been like?? lol
