Looks mint considering its an unrestored nova, must have rotted away at this stage,

Cant wait to see it, what plans have you for it, sr rep with a corsa block
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Thats not fair, i got banned for having corsa-b.co.uk as my sig :lol: so cant check:(

That rot isnt that bad compared to most novas at least it was only in the common spots and didnt spread, what engine you going for? Another 1.4?
