the floor of that allegro looked to me at least to be a suspicious brown colour.

 

maybe its just surface rust, but, been a pessimistic person i did wonder if it was more that just surface deep......

 

oddly enough on the car spares bit on ebay there are all sorts of repair panels fopr the allegro including scuttle p[panels and back window panels just like whats crusty on the tara green one!

'This is a convertible hard top'

 

Call me cynical and paint my bollocks blue, but I'm pretty sure if you Googled 'hard top' you won't actually find a picture of the padded walls of a Charlie Chalk's kids soft ball play area.

Winnah! Literally?

 

Three and a bit days to go but my highest bid might be high enough that if people bid a few pounds more than what it stands at and are told they've been outbid every time they might be put off. I feel a trip to Penrith may be in my future )in which case, who wants it?).

I have a terrible feeling it might have to be hidden away in the back yard of a bakery near me.... ;)

2.0 SEH is about 130 BHP ? and quite cheap second hand BUT is BIG block and heavy metal.

 

Personally I think a small block 1.3 8V with silly tuning would make 130 bhp and Handle better.

 

Or a small block 1.6 16V out of an astra mk3 sport with a bit of fettling, would make 130 Bhp and be quite useable.

 

Basically why fuck up the handling by fitting a heavy engine?

 

I like the alloys but see no reason to go above 14 inch.

2.0 8v in a nova is fun a mate of mine has one in a saloon, the big block helps keep a bit of weight on the front end, it doesn't fuck the handling up one bit, it handles lovely, the speedo needle can't keep up, the power and torque are effortless and it's easy to drive so they are great alternatives to omgredtop

 

I do miss the back in the day sound of a nova 1.3Sr with raised compression, headwork, big cam and side draughts screaming along though
