right - for those styling monsters out there, heres the final drafts of the car. Based heavily on the OPC Corsa C with some Monaro adjusted side skirts and modded bonnet. plan to start it in may...providing my m8 can get that ruddy Punto Bonnet!
:?
Pic Quality isnt great - they were snapped from the drawing board at an angle - but it gives you a fair idea...

Current colour is BMW Dakar Yellow with anthracite and chrome highlighths - Wheels in Anthracite (probably TSW Voodoo's). Interior - still drawing that up but it will be loosely based around the MG ZR's new cockpit (rounded chrome air vents) - yellow and black trim etc etc etc...
Considering making it a 2 seater with the rear seats removed but a box section build for speakers, amp and then have a cavernous boot area (never have passengers in the rear of me Nova - theyre a pain in the anus)
Ade
it will look ace when it's done, old nova with some modern inspiration.
it might be worth a look at this, not all that different from what you are aiming for

yeah - thats nice - my front end will be a little more subtle (not keen on bad boy bonnets) but the overall finish is very good
Ade
very impressive designs ade .. look of it looks really gud n well thought out
all those mods shud fit perfectly with the car .. cant wait to see this materialise mate 8)
Looks nice, very original ade will look the dogs nuts when its done. personnally get another exhaust out the other side of the back bumper would look god irc.
Needs to have much fatter tyres in the pics make it look mcuh smarter!! :wink:
Plans look awesome Ade As long as you can carry them out u'll have a pukka lookin nova when ur done.
the only bit I really need now is the punto mk2 bonnet. Me mate let me down on that on e- he cant get the one he promised me anymore.
:x
So I'll need to ring about a few breakers yards. The ones I've called so far all want just under ?100 for 2nd hand one!
sod that! Can buy brand new from sel for ?80 inc delivery!
Here's the link to the start of my custom rear lights.

I'll add more here when I do more...
Given up on the Punto bonnet - decided instead to fashion my own so nipped down to B&Q and bought some sheet steel...
However before I can do that I need to mount the lights so I can line it up perfectly, and before I can do that I need to replace the lower front valance with the new one I got for my birthday - and before I can do that I need to get Aragorn and Broos (Kev abd Bruce) round so I can get my engine out and borrow their welding experience!
:D
And thats gonna have to wait until July because every weekend in June I'm busy!
:roll:
oh well...
Ade
Riggy your back smoked lights are nearly as hot as my girlfreind.. i have some but yours look diffrent, where did you get them from sir?
