Coming on well dude, tip with seam sealer, brush it on, then run the paint brush back over is a S paten, give it a very factory look.

The bit on the front panel under the lights was just lashed on cause we ran out of time and its not really seen (also so a gathering of tin worm didnt see a shiny part on a nova and think it there new home) , but cheers for the tip he can put that to practice on the rest of the car lolQuote:

Would prefer everything going as one, which would include
Shell with glass and GSi interior
99% Perfect condition doors
Pistons & rods
1 Engine/box ecu and loom
Suspension
Brand new bottom ball joints, track rod ends and front wheel bearings
GSi front bumper (has a hidden crack)
Unused paint etc to finish it off
Plus what ever else I bought to use on it, someone is interested but if they don't want it I'll be putting a for sale thread up in the morning detailing everything.
Split the engine etc from the shell, will sell easier. Hook me up with all the engine bits you have, Catch mee on msn.
Pistons and rods wont be cheap.Quote:

£1,300, I'm in no rush to sell it to be honest and not willing to drop the price as there is well over £1,800 worth of parts to go with it.Quote:

I've decided to throw that in with the sale of this one mate.
Bit of an update, no pictures as I keep forgetting my camera :mad:lol
Gave the brake servo, blanking plate for the opposite and wiper motor bracket a fresh coat of black paint the other day and left them to dry, fitted the servo and blanking plate today (not fitting wiper motor yet as need to repaint the scuttle tray) and I'm liking the look of the black on blue, also fitted the pedals and was going to fit the dash but I've managed to loose a few parts including the pin that goes on the back of the servo :mad: hunted all over the garages but they've vanished :(
I ordered some top mounts and bearings off ebay so waiting for them to arrive so I can get the car rolling once I get the bearings pressed into the hubs, also sourced a bargain of an engine, going to pick that up on saturday hopefully :d.
so you're not selling now wibble?
If someone offers me the cash I'll sell it, but this is a bad time of year to be selling a project and I've had no interest so far.
Managed to get a few things done today, started off by getting rid of some unseen rust on the inside from where it had been welded on the outside, managed to get the carpets down, dash fitted put the master cylinder and discovered I'd lost a few screws and the pin that holds the servo in :cry:did some other little odds and sods too but nothing major, now some pics.

Thanks to Danny for picking me up and Gareth for farting alot and properly stinking the car out, rotten bast@rd lol but he did help so all is forgiven.
Want the pin for the servo? I could inc it with the other bits.
he need the pin that goes through from the inside of the car connecting the brake pedal bar to the servo ( the round thats approx 15-20mm in diam where the clip that goes throught one side) :thumb:Quote:

Well we all gotta start somewhere and I've never played with Nova's to this extent lol Just ordered a new steering rack too :)
just thought I would update his post as he conveniently didnt have his camera on him. I left him to put his freshly painted items on his car came back after a bit to find this :cuckoo: :

Got some bottom arm plates (TCA plates) off Mr Dave Dixon :thumb:

Cleaned the bottom arms up, fitted the plates and painted them

I even managed to do a bit of welding which wasn't too bad :) although I got Gareth to do most of the welding as he is better.
Thanks to Gareth for taking me for this engine + Dave and Col for helping out :thumb:
so is this fully back on the cards now or is it still for sale?
TBH mate I dont think he even knows what day it is, but at the moment he is finishing it off so he should be keeping it :thumb:Quote:
