I'll post them in no particular order other than the numerical order that they are named in, and I'll post 10 pics per post, so expect 13 posts from me tonight with plenty of pics.
Some Nova's have probably been seen before in this thread but I've tried to not make it too many, most of the Nova's are ones that people won't think are much 'special' and some (Admittedly not many) are big bodykitted things and won't appeal to everyone, most however have taken the subtle route and are just simple and tidy.
There's also a very very old of Chris Tunnicliffe's Nova mixed in there somewhere, Beastys LET pre-private plate and also Proby Walsh's Nova at Max Live '98 (I think it was - with white 15" rims) and probably a few more 'known' Nova's aswell.
All pics are scans from photo's that I've personally taken down the years and as such the quality of some isn't great, but they are better than nothing.
I think I'll not be posting anymore pics in this thread until I get the stack of camera films developed in which case I might have some more pics to put up, but for now I'll let others contribute!!
:wink:
Watch this space later tonight / early morning.
Anyway - Doom3 is calling.......
:twisted:
Gimme a shout if you want some help Jules :)
Can zip a few up and send em over msn or something.
i thought i would contribute

If you're sitting comfortably then I'll begin, 56k'ers you best go have a lie down for the next few pages!!
No order and some won't be seen as 'special' but here they are anyway.
Ths first one is my old black NovaT40 as it was when I got it (There are 3 more pics of it midway through the pics showing what it was like when I sold it - C702 MJB)
Here we go......

absolutely awesome jules... those are my fav pics in terms of old skool/age. i remeber going to/ being at those billings and trax's but i don't remember the cars. got any more???..
jules ur a pic hording legend
any more pics of the black kreg a page back?
ben
:o :o :o
Only took an hour, but got them all downloaded and saved! Thanks Jules honey ;)
Keith :lol:
Jules wins this thread hands down.. especially sa there all his own photo's!
Some of them bring back some memories.. others were before my time!
Noticed Rami's reshell in there, Dave Liu's turbo before he smashed it up and Chris T when he had 15's and a 2.0 8v! I remember CHris coming down to a Milton Keynes meet in it and taking everyone for blats around the carpark! lol
Glad you like the pics peeps, It's not about winning or losing the thread for me as I'm just glad I can share the pics with those that want to see 'em.
IMO this thread should really be sticky'ed so it's always there for people to view easily as I get the impression that this thread is gonna go on and on and become something of a legend - who knows how many non-NL members have come here just to view it!!
Peester - I think I've probably got more pics on some films I've never got round to having developed, I doubt very much that they are as old as those ones above, but until I get them developed I'll never know!!
Benn - I don't have any more pics of it I'm afraid (I assume you mean the black one with the white mutlispoke rims?) I think that was only only show I saw that particular car at.
Rami's reshell was gorgeous, and when those pics were taken (at VBOA) there were 3 silver GSi's all pretty much next to each other, the L reg one (Not Jason Husdons), Rami's and mine resh from the bodyshop.
One of the other 2 had something I've never seen before or seen since in a Nova - a fold down rear center arm rest!! I think it was on the L plate one. :o
Is that the red one with the red/black leather/alcantara interior?Quote:

Gorgeous car - what happened to it (Apart from him smashing it up!!) - how did he do it? What damage? etc etc
Hope he was OK.
Yes it is Jules.. and yep thats the interior thats now in Ricks.
If I remember right what he told me was he locked up in the wet and crashed it.. he reshelled it (into the shell that i bought - although I kinda regret that decision lol) but he never got it back on the road properly. Freak will probably tell you better as he's good friends with Dave.
Rami's new shell was indeed lovely, I remember he'd just had the entire interior retrimmed in very nice black leather. Still dont know what he's upto these days..
Quality picture there Andy, loving the colour! Just replaced the thermostat today *sigh*.Quote:

If anything doesn't make sense for a little bit its cos I'm playing with it! Just aswell I don't have to be up in the morning! lol
:D
lol @ 700 posts before making it a sticky. i agree with ya jules bout billing; tis the best. or at least it was until png got banned for havin too rowdy members. the sight of all those clean old skool novas lined up was what made me wanna get one. i was viva'ing it back then and i think it was in '98..? that the png stand was next to the viva owners club. i was converted... glad i was there. didn't have any pics to remember it by but now i do.
wicked.

Ok, I've uploaded all 550+ pictures that still work on this thread to a thumbnail gallery.
If you continue to post your old skool pics here I'll update the site everynow and then.. or alternatively if you zip up your pics and mail them to me (especially if theres lots!) G_Breen@Yahoo.co.uk (Thats got the biggest inbox size of all my email accounts)
Its only taken me nearly 3 hrs.. and think I've got RSI now from saving all the pics lol Hope its all ok :)
