Aye mate plenty of nova's had sunroofs, they just never made a 2 door saloon with a factory tilt and slide sunroof, this only came to light when he went to vauxhall to try and get a headcloth for it and they told him that there is no such thing so it was a pretty unique car, ironically he rolled it and we had to put a non sunroof roof on it
