was a 12v, then was graced with a ill fated tb monster 2ltr's

now will have a almost std tune, reliable 2ltr, will be left bodywork wise totally std, a set of grp wings and bonnet may appear, along with perspex windows

here are some pics from today

the scrappy i was at was queensferry car and commercial breakers, they seem to have a decent stock of corsa's each time i go there, 01244811109

thought you guys could do with another source or corsa bits

the donor car that the dash and loom came from





new dash home and ontop of the shell "was raining" so was working on it in the garage



new loom in rear wheel



front end



old loom stripped out


couple of goodies i purchased





front end stripped down



gotta sort this then weld on strength plate kit




cant wait to get the grinder on it tomorow weather permitting
