Somone bought a Nova one a few years back. Can't remember anymore details. In theory it should be possible, but it would cost lots!

Still got the nova its getting there now. Want a new Corsa shell to reshell the engine into when the nova falls to bits! Will want it caged etc to stop the corsa falling apart as well.

Might look for a late base spec 1.2 or even better a 3 cylinder with low miles.

You would be far better with a complete car, just find a late tidy one. There's lots to buy for a bare shell.

More prep and painting to do on it really. Once its water tight then it is going to JP exhausts so they can re make me the down pipe and the boost pipe up to the inlet. Hopefully that will bapen by the end of the month at the latest.
