Hello guys and girls im new to the site so still learning how to get around it just sold my pulsar and looking to get back in to corsa's, mainly c20xes and let's or maybe a z20.
Having a look about at the moment but will probably wait till after the new year to make any purchase but thought I'd join up now to see what's been happening. I was a member on migweb about 4 years ago but have been on this site quite a lot lately and it looks pretty deece so...
Will post a few pics of my cars up when I learn how to lol is there aniPhone friendly upload option? Or is it a photo hiding site?
Thanks in advance
Josh

I suppose it would depend on the seller really, I bought one before from Preston and it lasted 10minutes but if someone off here was selling one I would trust them a lot more if that makes sense. I have been looking for decent garages in my area and got quoted £700 for a conversion so I guess I will have to see what's about in a month or so. I have a basic understanding of cars and a little bit of knowledge on XEs but like I say I bought a dud before with the head gasket gone and thought I knew what I was looking for then lol

Do you think it's something that most people are capable of? My friends dad worked for vauxhall for 20 ish years so he could maybe help out a bit. Do you mean rebuild the block or do the conversion? I suppose even if I rebuilt it and paid for the conversion it would save some cash and give me piece of mind. But like I say is a rebuild something I can do to a high standard first time? Thanks though mate it's great that I can finally get some specific info
