I wouldn't spend anything on it, looks like its been round the block a good few times.

Doesn't look the right base for a good Nova.

Sorry if im being harsh but it looks like its had a hard life, the type of person who sprays a dash orange isn't gonna be into keeping the thing rust proof and spending money where it counts.

I'd say theres a high chance them arches are full of filler.

All imo of course.

THE COLOUR.

Its an awful off pallet orange - looks like an 8 year old rac vans paint lol.

If you plan on keeping it, id strip the shell out, do any welding that it wants, respray it a decent colour and underseal the bottom again. Fit an XE on itbs, a cage, some trick suspension and chassis mods and you will be the proud owner of something that isnt going to stand out for all the wrong reasons!
