That’s only ever happened to me once ... fortunately just as I was reversing into my driveway. Needless to say, my car went back out of the driveway...

Little job popped up just to keep me busy while I can't get to the shed. Mother in laws 1988 Honda Civic 1.4TC broke its cam belt, nuff said....

Why not just use one of the many UJ joints from CBS and cut out a lot of metal. I used one going from Triumph Dolomite to Citroen C16.

Here's some spec

I've looked and I can't find anything too useful. I was asking something more specifically about the Nova.

Have a look at the Dvla site under kits & rebuilds you should find the info you need there

Reason I'm asking is because the rules to Import cars over 30 years old in Greece are very strict. From my understanding Kit Cars are illegal since...

Another suggestion would be a D slot pin in a slot with a clamp on the outside to hold it in, if you decide to drill right through and pin/bolt don't...

I agree Dvla couldn't be more reasonable, sent completed form on a Monday and by Thursday they'd changed it from VW sports to Nova

Looks very similar to the Cortina parts I used to use on buggy builds, and I think my first Nova. Found this old picture in a build album (a real...

Yup,I was going to suggest cross-drilling like that and a roll-pin......

There are various marks it has been registered as in the UK, a few examples : VW Sports Nova Nova Sports VW Beetle

When I've done something similar in the past once the two parts were welded together I drilled a small hole all the way through both from one side to...

It’s in a forum that’s only accessible by logged in users/registered users at first glance Peter. I also can’t see it

Thanks for the confirmation David .... new side windows it’ll have to be then!

Drill first then temper as that is what I did with mine

Pop onto the EOC forum and have a look, it's worth it.

Hi Phill, I suspect you’ll find that the canopy wasn’t modified for the Mk2. My canopy has glass side windows and the guy who bonded them in had...

Here's some photos of my 30 +year old mod, these are alloy which I doubt are available any longer as everything is plastic now and much more bulky

Thanks Dave - That looks ideal. I also used to think flat glass wouldn't fit due to the curvature but in fact my car has glass fitted and came...

I was under the impression that the window aperture had a very slight curve to it which is taken up when fitting a non-glass window. Is there a...

Thanks Mike! :thumbup:

Caravan toggle catches are the thing I use ,just unscrew a couple of turns and the window will come out,my windows are split with a quarter light...
