I actually put that square badge on it as there was nothing on it when I got it. Its not a genuine Vauxhall one as there is no V in the flag. Should be a round griffin on it, although I'm not fussed on the look of them!

Have a genuine V one on her now but like you said amn't pushed but I think you can notice the square one more.
Lovely Work Murph - This car keeps getting better and better
Such a lovely car, looks fantastic on the speedlines.
Have finally got the Nova back on the road and got classic insurance on her too which was a big plus!
Since my last post have done a few small things:
- Gaz ultra low coilovers have been installed with solid topmounts.
- New rear boot grab handle has been put on.
- Have got a new set of head light covers for her (Thanks to one of the lads on here!)
- Also had the starter and alternator reconditioned.
Other than that have been driving her mainly the weekends, when the weather is good. Took her to a Ford show of all things and couldn't believe the it won one Best Retro Car at the show. Anyways heres a few quick snaps I had on the phone.

I want that car! Looks perfect, bet you're well chuffed with it.
Car is lovely you should be proud.
I bet you winning the award at a Ford show didn't go down well with a few lol
Well done winning the award, the GSI looks stunning
But that child is far to close to the nova :wtf:
Looks stunning.
Cheers lads.
It was like that a few times during the day. Had to close my eyes sometimes when they were around it :wall:

Would love to be able to get the VAUXHALL sticker for the boot vinyl to the right. If anybody knows or has a good picture and some measurements let me know as I may make up a few.
Also a pic of the new grab handle, just wondering anyway of cleaning up the lock push bottom or does anyone have a new one or a very similar color one lying about?

Where did you get the round Griffin boot sticker? Class GSi by the way!
Have a look on ebay they still sell them on that. Cheers lad

Eh?
What is the best way of posting pics, instead of using photobucket?
Had a small update to the car was alive but the pics did not post.
I use FlickR. It's free for something like the first 1000 photos. Easy to use and works wellQuote:

had the round one on both my GSIs always preferred the round one, imo the GTE had the square front one and rear, the mk2 always looked better with a boot round one that matched the round bonnet badgeQuote:

Always liked the forums as you have a great record of you works and any queries you may have.
Anyways I haven't got out in the car in a very long time but do keep it fresh and maintained.
Few jobs I've carried out are.
- Window steel dividers rubbed down and sprayed satin black.
- A service.
- Full paint correction and waxing.
