wip full rebuid (gte)

just keep sharp objects out of reach for the time being lol iam sure in a few days you will have another project lined up , that the best way to keep your mind off it

Totally gutted for you fella, i know when i binned my corsa sport i just wanted to crawl in a dark corner so can relate to how you feel. :cry:

fookin hell unlucky bud

but as arty said

material posesions can be replaced, it will be hard work to recouperate but its possible

however limbs and lives are harder to make

so im saying unlucky but infact your lucky as you walked away and wasnt stretchered away

nah no more just going to put mine up for sale at pv sell the twin fortys and the the rebored 2.1 hi comp seh 2.0l 8v i got lined up for mine and every spare i have and just pack it in and call it a day ive had enough im exstreamly well known in my area for my work with vauxhalls and novas especialy and have alot of people come to me on a regular basis for work but i just dont want the hastle any more ive had enough in a few years maybe but by then they will all be dead and rotten by then any way so sod it i cant go through the blood sweat and tears again to get so close and to loose it all in a second it realy has screwed my head up this time and i realy think im just gona call it a day

nah ste, dont let one thing hold you back. accidents happen, dont let 1 thing hold you back. even on thsi thread the nova looked brilliant, dont stop making them ste, carry on

Strewth! Just found out what happened.

Take your time to gather yer thoughts chap. The shock will take a few days to come out of your system. I had a similar accident with fewer rolls & I didnt sleep for nearly a fortnight.

Dont make any brash decisions in the mean time & chill out & think about stuff other than cars etc. Rob Lee said the same when he stacked his SR up badly but in the end, chose to build another Nova to take up his time & help hiom get over it.

Best of luck with the recovery.

Bad luck mate, these things happen. Sorry to hear that.

Yeh Rob was saying the same thing as you, he now owns a c16xe on tb's.

u must be so gutted, it was lookin soo mint aswell, but atleast ur ok, and the cage really did save ur life, hope u start buildin Novas again cus it looks like ur really gd at it

If thats the case are you sure that did not pull back though the tie bar mount and cause the crash?
