Nice base car, cant see any rust, it cant be a nova without rust lol

Whats your plans for it?

[Rickyb]

looks nice mate whats the plans?

[scottydogg38]

Well the only rust that i have uncovered is a slight bit on the offside rear arch and a slight hole behind the battery, the nearside rear arch has had a rust repair job, someone has removed the rust and just welded a plate over it but i havnt started to strip the car down yet to find other possible rust, but it looks nice so far.

The plans for it are as follows, this idea is in early stages so might be very different when finished, but i plan to keep the standard bumpers for now or if i can get sum GSI ones, but new wheels 15", new coil over suspension, so its gonna be lowered, uprated brakes, decent ice, n overall just make it all fancy with electric windows n stuff like that lol oh yeh its gotta have a nice exhaust, not gonna be massive but shud sound great i hope. But like i said its an idea in early stages so i havnt thought of many ideas yet and alot of it might be different when finished

[TIDGE]

sounds like a plan

see you on monday xxx lol

[scottydogg38]

yeh boys and girls, i passed my theory test the other day, so i'm getting closer to driving my little nova on my own (legally) :)

[Welsh Dan]

If you spend a day polishing the paintwork and going over the plastics with a heatgun it'll look much much nicer :thumb:.

[scottydogg38]

guys and girls, i'm affraid i have brocken my arm, which means that my driving test is postponed and the nova project will also be slowed down, but i have recently ordered a sports back box :D shud be on soon

[scottydogg38]

had problems with the new backbox so sent that back, but i spent a few hours on my plastics, making them look black and new again, looks pretty good but needs going over or just a bit of buffing up, get some pics up soon
