all i say mate is, get it on the road, and ENJOY driving it, and showing it off on the road, dont sell, pointless. and WHO would pay 10k for a corsa...which u cant drive? not being nasty mate, but if some1 buys it, they will b doing alot on maintaince on that! would b nice to see ppls faces when they see that thing pull up behind them!

Well, you are obviously very talented with what you do with cars, why not take the car off the road and have a go at rebuilding the engine completely or get a LET engine and rebuild that, then when its done you can swap them over. Give it a go mate, will be worth it and im sure you could enlist beardy or Lee M for help with it all.

I think you should put a tigra boot on it if your actually thinking about chopping the roof and re-spraying it Sounds crazy...

my only reasonable suggestion would be hydro's or air. hydro's cost me 1200. fitted myself. air would be the best option, ds enginering do a bolt on airbag kit for £850. totally diy and wiring aside its straightforward. also you could just go to an industrial hydraulics firm and make it all yourself by buyin the rams seperately and weldin it to struts, buy the pump and valve block, all the hoses and build yourself a full kit for about £500 ish, poss less. other than that, sort your interior out into somethin more custom and a new spray job. i'll be on paint job no 4 soon. maybe its time for that 206 dash you mentioned??
