Started to look for a new motor due to me giving up with my old corsa, and came across this on ebay
2000 corsa b 1.0 12v GLS
3dr in silver
91k on the clock
Electric windows/mirrors
central locking




Any my old corsa gsi rep




Got badly vandalised so decided to get rid and start again 
Anyway plans for the new corsa are just to tidy it up at first
New no.plates
Smoked side repeaters
Get underneath undersealed
Fit coilovers
fit sportex 3" outward rolled backbox
Refurb cav slabs (anthracite?)
Depo's
And get my gsi kit in bodyshop to get painted
First thing i did was get the slabs on

Alloys definatly need a refurb...thinking anthracite
Then i decided to put the exhaust on

Thinking of getting a new exhaust in the new year as this one is looking pretty rough 
Definatly needs lowering now, will be done in the new year sometime 
And just two of my favorite photo's so far


You can also see i now have the centre caps for the slabs and got some side repeaters of an astra
Also need to get the bumpstrip glued back on, on the drivers side rear quater as it fell of a couple of weeks ago looks like it was stuck on with double sided sticky tape

Not really much of an update, but decided to remove the rear bumper and arches and search for rust.
Really clean underneath the rear bumper, only a tiny bit of surface rust.
Drivers side rear arch has quite a bit of rust ,think it might need cutting out and a plate welding in, i will get this done asap along with the other little bits.
Anyway a few pics 

Also be getting rid of that sticker off the boot asap 


Also got some stickers for the rear window, not sure on the smiley face though 

And fitted my 6x9's to the parcel shelf as there was allready holes there for them...not sure whether to keep them yet or get rid, sound fairly decent with them in.

Havn't hidden the wires either Think i'm going to take them out though 
And just a random pic i found

Can't wait till the weather starts getting abit better, working on the car without a garage in this weather is f***ing horrible...

Finally got round to fitting my coilovers!! 


Went to get the tracking done today but they couldn't do it because it was lowered? 
Anyway hopefully i'll be taking it down to tanvic tomorrow to get that sorted.
But a pic of the front camber 

Can't wait to get the tracking done now.
Steelies are back on the car aswell because the slabs are getting a refurb
