Have you got to cut the o/s chassis leg to fit them in corsas? Or is that just Novas?

Yes and no. You do but there's a guy that has a mount made for the type 2 so you don't need to

Yeah, I'm gonna use the f20 box, so the rear mount and gear box mount are the same. So ill either make a mount for chassis or ill buy the one the guy makes.
But things like diesel rad you need as it flows different etc. few little things are different

Yeah it sure is. The engine bay is immaculate. Also boot floor has no rust either. Cross member looks decent so do legs! So hopefully a good one All service history from 93 and about 8 old mots. Has 70,344 miles which is low for this car. So going to keep it as mint as I can. Want to find somewhere near me with an overhead ramp tht will do underseal properly not just clarted on lol the wiper arms, door handles and scuttle are very faded so going to buy brand new ones to make it look better. Only thing I'm doing is changing the rad to my alloy one to cool engine better with the dual fans. Doesn't smoke either which is a good sign. Taking her to my garage on Tuesday to have a right good looky over. Want to do a compression test to see what like! Couple of little rust bubbles coming out so need to get them sorted. Apart from that outside and inside is sweet! Also no bolster wear which is surprising lol
