New nova

[MK999]

Figured since I now have enough posts for photos I should post this up :thumb:

Recently got this in good condition apart from the paintwork for the bargain sum of £235, and set about undersealing it all so it hopefully rots slower than the average nova and also been trying to sort out the paintwork.

When I got it:

Bit of undersealing:

The paintwork needs a really good cut polish and wax done to it really, but it's better than it was. Will get more done on it when I'm back from uni and (hopefully) earning. It's in fairly good nick though, bit of rust on one rear quarter and passenger door is about the only bad bit besides the hugely apparent poverty spec lol

was that on ebay with a dented rear 1/4 panel?

I was seriously considering it but seem to recall there was no papers...

Looks good. Start getting on with it when youve passed. Put a thread in projects, i would for mine but dont have camera

[MK999]

Your phone takes great artistic shots tho lol I'll stick one in projects when I have money to do interesting things to it, don't think many people are interested in my swapping broken bits for working ones :)

Spent some time (2 days :eek:) working on the paint work by hand with what I could find in the garage/halfords, and now have a red Nova instead of a pink one ! lol

Really pleased with the outcome, although it could use going over again in a few months time as theres a few slightly faded bits still :)
