VXR Turbo VAUXHALL NOVA FULL Restoration.

IT'S TIME!.... to sell one of my cars (insert unhappy face here). I'm a bit of a car hoarder and with over 40 cars it's time to let some of them go. There is a problem though, most are in need of desperate repair and most don't even run. Lets start with car number 1, a Vauxhall Nova that's had an Astra VXR engine put in it! This things rotten with a large side of bodgery! Lets crack on and get this thing restored in a month and sell it.
I hope you enjoy this video. Instead of the boring 10 minute time lapse to music I gave it a twist with more of a story, let me talk you though the process of restoring this lovely classic car. Ohh and I still added the music, it's just not over the time-lapse ha ha.

Any videos under 15mins are ideal.last the length of a cup of tea and when you live a busy life 15mins is spot on.great content as usual.

[@aqa321]

Amazing how rare these have become. I remember there was a guy in Malvern with a red Nova that had the 2L turbo engine stuffed in it. Seemed to spend it's life being thrashed around the McDonald's carpark, as any self respecting Nova driver did in the early 2000s....

[@michaelhall6004]

Just recently started looking back through your channel and I have to say this is excellent content.

[@esionbristol]

Same here. Loving it

[@Castrotherapper13]

You boys do not cut corners ❤NICEEE

[@vortexmdk6776]

Snapped so many of my mates necks off sat in the back of my red top nova, those back seats with no head rests was a real treat

[@stevehealy7504]

The epitome of front wheel drive nutters. Magic

[@karlgt9989]

Awesome montage, love a white Nova...

[@karlgt9989]

If you ever think about letting the mini shorty go, let me know 👍

[@michaelyounes29]

Such an iconic design! Loved these and the Calibra

[@ODDAutos]

Yes getting rare now too, they are great! 👍👍

[@martycrush6412]

Had 3 novas. A 1.2 swing, 1.3 SR and finally my gsi which with standard 1.6 was pretty pokie 💪🏼💪🏼😍

[@makethingsbetter]

I had a Nova back in 1992, class and handled better than anyone new, under steer baby! lol 😆

[@grayfool]

That's all White, that there Nova. I was never a fan but this one is very nice. And 300BHP? Can't argue with that.

[@davidhebson6266]

Can't believe how bad it was at the start, glad I never viewed. You did a top job 👏

[@wfp5484]

She's a beaut! Well done 👍

[@southskysunrise]

🥰. I’m sending you one of mine here. Will collect it in 4 weeks 😜

[@kylejenkins9563]

I'm the lucky winner of the Nova, can't wait to have it delivered!

[@ODDAutos]

Mate congratulations!! I love that car it’s crazy fast ! Make sure if you ever sell it let me know first 👍👍👍

[@kylejenkins9563]

@@ODDAutos Thanks, I'm really looking forward to enjoying it, hope it doesn't scare me too much! No intention of selling for now, maybe one day I could be persuaded with a swap for another of your builds! 😉

[@ODDAutos]

Noooo! You sold it 😢😢

[@Mattlawton-ft6ew]

​@@ODDAutosthats a vile pile of rust and bodgery. Great work 👍

[@eyesky3987]

My 1st hot hatch was a Nova gsi. Loved it. I’ve been looking for one for a decent one for a while, so rare!

[@pauldixon3677]

Looks stunning in the new white. A tired old Nova got a new lease of life thanks to all 3 of you. Well done lads. Great car and vids.

[@alexdeakin4266]

Love a loony Nova. Been out in some before but none that fast. I was glad when the wings went on. I was having flash backs of my sub £400 SR, when i was checking it over before MOT and found the flitch was made out of news paper and underseal :( :) I loved it while it lasted though. Looking forward to the next one fellas !

[@bige9329]

Awesome finish , old school Vauxhalls are brilliant

[@anthonylynn1969]

Don't worry we still have BBC Radio management what great talent they are oh how the listeners love them 🤥... Rest in peace Steve we know who the talent is rest now fella ❤️

[@alanhanniffy8177]

Awesome job, love the vlogs and final build video combination, a lot of hard work going in here guys between the grafting and the editing, don’t seem yourselves short with the length of the build episode, or split the build into a pair of videos with the vlogs, the problem was the giant gap, now that’s sorted with the vlogs, take credit, great job, great finish, a VW next please 😀🇮🇪👍

[@ODDAutos]

Cheers Alan really appreciate this comment mate, it’s been a hard month lol. I’ve got a mk2 Golf Gti and a Mk5 Golf R32 that was thinking of doing a body swap in the future, have to keep you eye out for that one 👍

[@hayhursts4011]

Wow looks amazing that lads who doesn’t love a nova on speedlines👌🏻

[@damianmarsden5176]

She look really well.well done lads

[@-abacchus]

Such a sweet lil' Nova! BTW - I not too bad with a rattle can, but I'd love Keith to teach me 'proper' spraying!

[@aintnuttinnice_7590]

Amazing job👍

[@vauxhallmadnessuk5923]

Absolutely outstanding. Great work lads 👏

[@Jim_M_75]

Nice build lads, wouldn't expect any less. If I'm honest I think you're short changing yourselves squashing a whole build into 10 minutes, hope this format helps get the views and subs up but would still like to see some in depth restorations too.

[@davegavin7914]

If only builds went this quick 😂😂 it’s a stunning car to your usual impeccable standards so pleased your going from strength to strength you deserve it 👏👏👏👏

[@ODDAutos]

Cheers Dave, this one turned out mint 👍👍

Love the car, if I was in England I'd buy a ticket. Great build, hot hatches are the go I reckon Well done lads 👍

[@billywhizz98]

Fantastic work by team odd autos the car looks amazing everything done to a high standard

[@djemmay]

A labour of love. Amazing attention to detail on the metal work, better than when it rolled out of the factory. The modern twists are the icing on the cake.

[@ODDAutos]

Thanks buddy, I loved that Nova when it was finished 😍

[@djemmay]

@@ODDAutos it’s great to see another classic car updated so that it will keep going for miles into the future. Too many cool old cars get broken for parts, or worse still, scrapped.

[@ODDAutos]

I know, not many Nova’s left out there now.

[@davekennedy6315]

Ahhh that looks INCREDIBLE after you guys worked your magic! In my Essex Boy Racer days I was Vauxhall through and through. I owned a couple of Astra GTEs (a 1.8 and then a Coscast XE 16v) and a Cavalier SRI with a mate that was Nova/Corsa crazy. So I've been in lots of SRs and SRIs, I can't even imagine what they're like with 3 times the power of the most powerful Nova! Loving the channel gents!

[@fill7t1]

Another perfect job! Looks amazing!

[@paulwitham8026]

Very , Very nice 👌

[@stevejanka361]

Good afternoon guys, another fantastic finish. I do enjoy the Chinesium technical specifications. Been there and seen that. It never ceases to amaze me, the repairs that some people do to a vehicle. Thanks again for a great video and look at your sparkling clean shop. Take care and good luck.

[@5harp3y]

Stunning build!

Very beautiful build 👌 top job by the team.

[@Rockape501]

I've only just stumbled across the channel...its awesome, so is that Nova re-build. Nice to see one car and one episode and not being dragged out. It would of been a nice touch to keep the red stripes in the bumpers, keep the matt black between the front and rear windows, and of course keep the GSi badge on it, but that aside....Awesome !!!!

[@davidgerrard8661]

Lovely job as always.

[@richardhintonracing]

Looks amazing but must stand you in at a fortune .

[@MrJohnnyDMonic]

Love it. I had a blue SRi with a 2l redtop engine back in the day with the same wheels as this. Straight line speed was amazing, corners were another thing entirely! If I win the lottery I'll build another.
