    Always liked the 3 door Nova. It's the wheel arch blisters that make it. My first car was a '84 1.0 Nova in 1990. It was only 5 & 1/2 years old, but it was like a sieve. Holes everywhere, most worryingly in the left hand A pillar just behind the wing. When it rained the car used to fill with water. I only discovered the leak after a mate spotted mushrooms growing on the carpet in the passenger footwell.

Rather than unbolt the wing and repair the A pillar properly my Dad just filled the gaps between the wings and A pillars with clear silicone. I guess he wasn't too bothered about the car being structurally safe.

    Gotta love builds like this, especially being a Corsa guy myself aswell (driving a B though, not the Nova) :) One thing that baffles me though is how you guys can get these monsters through inspection and street legal? Atleast in Finland the builds are extremely tightly regulated and a conversion like this would never be street legal here. I think the biggest you can legally go here is to engine swap to the biggest factory engine they produced the car with (probably the 1.6l petrol) and even then you would have to swap all the brakes, suspension and everything to match the original big engine version to pass it. Sometimes I wish I lived in America or some other crazy country where some states don't have inspection at all and you can drive whatever crazy and deadly bucket you end up with :D The little boy inside of me does anyways
