well this is what i have been working on for the past 2 or 3 month...in the good weather so probably should have been running by now but been buying parts slowly lol.
bloody JBT damaged the door while delivering it to me
took the front suspension off my old corsa so sri sat on old brakes for a while as the threading was fooked lol. it now looks like this (my mate saved time by grinding everything off...burnt out 2 or 3 grinders in the process though lol)
want to annoy the cops so bought a peco big bore 4 off my mate. stop me if ya want, av got no rev counter so unless you have a tool to see what revs your doing, the exhaust stays on bitches lol.
finally decided which angel eyes to get lol. look stunning when they are in front of you rather than looking at a picture i must say!!
next on the agenda is a paint job i think (bumpers and arches are going black), then i will get engine in her and to finish her off need to put the rear lowering kit on, spoiler, fit dash, put seats in, weld a little bit and change a couple brake pipes at front and she should sail through MOT.
cheers for looking
Wayne.

been a bit busy so not got much done to her, so far engines in (just waiting for passenger side mount to come home), painted most of it (just needs a couple more coats), all the interior is in, was gonna get back windows tinted but they are sealed in and i didnt have cheese wire to get them out, need to change windscreen cos i slipped when bolting dash back in , got a couple pics on my mobile but not got them uploaded yet but will do soon.

passenger mount came home on Wednesday but only went and got it yesterday lol. so now engine is sitting properly, gonna check it over and hopefully get it running on Sunday (weather dependant as its outside), gonna attempt to tint the spare front windows aswell since they are out, once dad gets sheds sorted out i am going to finish painting her (new bonnet should be home by then and new windscreen). again, pics will follow soon.

got stopped before with old corsa and they tried telling me that my k&n was illegal cos it made the car make more noise. had a 3" peco on it at the time, which is now fukd or id be using it again rather than the 4" peco. surely the test they did would have been void as they couldn't tell what revs it was tested at as i had no rev counter????

everybodys a comedian. i really couldnt give a toss how loud it is, if it makes a nice noise then it will stay, if its raspy it comes off, simple. cops up here will stop us for any "grunt" that shouldn't be there.
