1.0l to????? Project
Ive been looking around for a while now since ive now settled in my house and
just bought a red 1.0l today from Dewsbury.I won it on the 'bay for £340.
It has EVERY single MOT certificate which obviously confirms the 22 thou on the clock,1 elderly owner from new who was heartbroken to see it go,and nearly all service history plus MOT til January.Its red with a brown dashboard,B reg.Its solid in all the important places but theres a few rust areas-arches wings etc nothing major really but could maybe need a sill.
Should keep me busy throughout summer and winter lol Will post pics up as soon as i get home.Plans are undecided yet but will be sticking with the brown dash lol Oh and the power is disgusting lol lol lol
-
Congrats on the new one! :)
But keep it as original is it could be because I don't think you will find so many "virgins" like it ;)
-
Thanks.Yeah there was that one and theres currently a green one aswell same sort of description hes asking for £650.This being much much closer got the bid! Im kicking myself because i sold all my old parts because id give up with them lol So its a case of starting from scratch again only its my 7th Nova.Hope to do it well enough to last me for a few years.Im going to both PVS and Billing so hope to find some bits there.

Well had the front bumper off today and had a good look around it and come to the conclusion that it seems good and it needs a drivers door,2new wings and a front valance.Also 2 repair arche panels will go on for good measure.pics are below.

Quick update,took all front end apart today got front valance off which needed replacing anyway and found the crossmember has rusted badly so the whole piece needs doing.Wings off and its solid behind there so thats good.What are the crossmembers like to fit? doesnt really look hard?
