Had this idea in my head for a while, so i did a pretty bad photoshop, but from a distance i think it kinda works , Would make an awesome first car It would be great of someone could do a better photoshop of it

Those rostyles actually work really well with the box arches

I'm a big nova lover, and i have never seen a nova on rostyles. good work. and early A reg base model, good luck finding one and i think there is to much black in there.

Bit too late for that particular A plate nova - Doovla says it bit the dust in 98!

Haha, sad to hear. The only reason i used that pic is because it was the only big picture of a standard early nova i could find.
The wheels arent actually rostyles, becasue rostyles are 4 ''spoke'' . I stole those off a mustang picture ;D

;D Funny thing is, i actually wanted banded steels on it, but tose were the only wheels i could find with white tyre lettering. But i reckon those wheels probably look better anyway

needs a cage and some death-proof decals on the bonnet, would be a clever play on things, seing as one of the cars used in death-proof was a nova, albeit of the chevy variety

I believe that there might even be a set of 4x100 rostyles in the parts for sale.

no they didnt have wider archs,
the saloon is weird in that you can lower it alot more then a normal hatch
and of course you can buy wide arch kits.

Does anyone know if these really early ones had wider arches? The saloons and 4 door hatch had normal round arches, but the 2 door hatch had a sort of square flared arch. Bryan
