The ones that i would love to own now are austins rwd saloon,longdogcharlies sport,bens nova turbo and rick drapers old red one.
I preferred it with the other front end, the bonnet and stickers suit it though.
For the money I can recommend on of these scanner printer combos for the money ;)Quote:

Downfall is you can only order the cartridges from Currys.
Actually cant believe i forgot about this one as it has to be my all time Fav. J20NOV, cant find many pics though but it was a serious piece of kit. Running 13 secs at crail and managed to get into the 12's :eek: (Well that was on Crail timing gear)
Raced it once in my silk violet gsi J16NOV which was near enough a standard XE, hasten to add it destroyed me lol

I'll dig out all my old fast car mags and scan in the nova features
I've plenty of old Max power mags and Total Vauxhall mags so will do the same Bazza, I know there's an old skool thread on here but soooooo many of the pictures are defunct now it's spoilt the thread tbh.
this is the coolest nova i have ever seen... i first noticed it sittng outside wallace performance in aberdeen years ago and i hassled him for ages to sell it...not sure what happend to it now

Wow....to pick one is impossible for me. Over the years there have been so many!
Not very good with names lol but..
The peppermint one (Bretts?), Decs red mk1, Martin Kelsons (which i love that he is still improving on it), all of Keiths, Mick J's builds are fantastic and thats just a few that i can think of right now. So so many more.
Shepard brothers motor?Quote:

Yep thats right Bazil. It had all its paintwork done regularly at the Vauxhall Dealers in Dunfermline that i worked at. They had it in the Showroom for a while aswell so it got a lot of attention back then, i even had the chance to buy it at one point but i couldnt stump up the 10k they wanted for it at the time. :cry:Quote:

John Walsh's?
Pic on about page 6
Awesome car, Anyone know what John does now? Never heard where he went after editing TV.
I spoke to him couple of years ago & he was working for Kia.
Did post on here recently ish.
Can't remember his user name now!
Ah... Last time i heard of him was when he Nova was in with Lee303 for Lee to finish it off...
Liftofoversteer I think is the username John goes by.
Still has the Nova to my knowledge.
Saw his name on Facebook actually recently too through a friend of a friend.
Thats the one remember thinking the corsa dash conversion was a great idea lolQuote:

i really should venture through the forums more, theres many novas ive liked over the years, ill try and find some pictures, one for me however, and the oldies on here will know who i mean, i dont know if he still uses this site or if anyone stays in contact with him? martin hill? i know hes from birmingham, he passed me once whilst i was at the bus stop many years ago, his nova was blue white and pink, always like his nova
