I assumed as I'm new here and I've already been accused of being someone called Wayne. Would be a bit strange of you to start accusing members who have been here for a few years suddenly, wouldn't it?

didnt say it wasnt concourse you jumped up gobshite! "nice build but i don't like em standard" although my original post has spastic typing involved. Its a personal opinion, nice car but i wouldent have it that way.

Are you taking the piss? Honestly? As good as Aamirs Nova is it's not a patch on the fit and finish of Dec's Nova, some people on here are utterly clueless.

So? I want to fucking smash your face in chatting bare breeze.

Top and bottom of it is that its not a Sport, fair enough people on here believe it to still be a sport shell but there is enough proof to show its not.

Shame really as its a fucking amazing build, best on a nova thats ever been done but to lie to people saying he had used the sport shell etc etc is just bang out of order. Wonder what it was sold to the guy who bought it as

Sport shell, Decs in fact:

Decs Brown shell painted white:

And a picture of a very early nova engine mount:

Also there are pictures showing up other things that highlight the fact the brown shell was used.

TBH i think most people would have done the same as the sport shell was tatty as fuck

Drivers side front chassis leg engine mount. Note the differences between the sport one in the top pic that has a hook like shape to the bottom of it as most novas do and a very early nova one with 2 captive nuts welded onto it. Then look what the freshly painted shell has fitted to it.

Also the brown shell was sent for panel removal with the head lining fully masked up, bit extreme just for panel removal then crushing dont you think?

So did Declan get the DVLA info changed as well then? As the Sport is shown as a '1.3 Base' isn't it?

Yes but surely the person buying it would see the car isn't genuine? Or you saying it's been plated up using the Sports identity?
