I bought this last week.....as a little track project

Started the work on it yesturday,i only planned on taking the Exhaust and driveshafts off....but i got a little carried away.

Anyway....here are some pics.

Here's how i bought the car,


With half of the 1.2 engine and gearbox still in


So i got the car on axle stands, so theres plenty of room to get the exhaust off,


The exhaust and shafts (one was already off) was done in no time.....so i had the rest of the day free.

So i decided to take the old engine out,



Which left the engine bay.......empty


We decided to fit the clutch, flywheel and gearbox onto the new engine, so its ready to be fitted in the corsa.

Nice clean engine!


We then fitted the starter motor, alternator bracket and new gear linkage.

This is the only picture i have so far of the engine in the car......i was suprised it went in with no problem.


I will start to rewire the loom tommorow, depending on the weather,

This project has started to be fun

Watch this space!
