1988 Vauxhall Nova W.I.P

Post by Muzzy on Mon Apr 13, 2009 2:58 am

Here is my project nov. She's a 1988 Nova Merit, originally lazer blue but was repainted with matt black paint and generally destroyed. My plans are for it to be semi stripped out with bucket seats and either a 1.6 8v engine or just go with a 2.0 16v XE.

So far ive basically stripped it down to a bare shell and cut the rot out ready for welding and paint.


















No front panel




Windscreen out the professional way.....with your feet!

clue is in the name NOVA WIP wip being the operative word here you may think that it is a bucket but once it is all finished it will be a bloody good example and the lad is doing all the work himself, not like some who pay others to do it, the lad has my praise , Rant over
any way as mentioned how is it getting on
