you've got a calibra donor car right? why not use shafts and hubs on that,
machine hubs to take corsa barings..
then just buy a chris astley mount kit, would of been cheaper

Dont be afraid to give us a shout. You have the living legends that are Dan and Jamie very very locally too. They can do an XE into a corsa with their eyes closed.
