Secret. It really is, and you'll have to wait because Tom's project is going to be pretty special

Well, the problem is. I'm getting a nice sensible Punto in December. I need to sell the Corsa to pay the deposit and insurance for that car so I can't be buying a Mini If I wasn't I'd sell the Corsa and totally buy the Mini... Hmmmm.... I could still do it and drive the Mini about for the next couple of months Goddd, why are you selling sucha cool car now

Only one picture, but never mind. Still an update
I did sand down the entire o/s of the car today. But my only picture is of the arch repair. I bonded the arch back on and I'm waiting for the crud to dry now

It was a messy job so I only took one pic as I didn't want a dirty phone. It's bonded in with sticky black goop left over from Fads side skirts. all the extra stuff is wiped off now and it looks reletively neat. Tomorrows pics will show
Took you that long to fit a set of coilovers

Oh, there is also black Hammerite in shot too because there was a rust patch where the bumper rubbed the paint due to bad fit which is now sorted out

You'll have to ask Tom about his plan cos it's super top secret. Come round on Saturday I'm sure I have spoken about my ideas before to you. It's just one of my dreamy plans

One day Body should be ready to paint soonish. Hopefully be able to put some primer down on it this weekend. Then I'm back at uni so not sure. Will get the colour down sooner or later. Maybe next week. Then the car will be pulled to pieces and all the suspension parts will be either powder coated or painted to make it all pretty and 100% rust free. Oh, and the whole underside is going to be painted too Errrr... Then there is the interior. That could take a while to do as I need to save my money up to get the seats leather trimmed as well as the boot install. I want to attend Max Power and all the CS shows next year in it though as I cant show my Punto on a Corsa stand
