Will have to see what student loan allows me to do regarding plans, can see a new engine going in it soon though this 1.2 is a thirsty bugger and I haven't even bothered trying put my foot down in it.

Well had a very busy weekend with this car and other's.
Now has semi smooth boot and all panels gone over removing all car park dings and rust/blemishes removed. Also got gsi rear bench and front door cards (trying to source some good condition gsi front seats so it matches and so i havent got the poverty spec shit seats in the front)
Also acquired some gsi skirts and car will be getting full respray next weekend and one night this week will be having either a badboy bonnet or badboy bonnet with extended middle, haven't decided yet.
Will get progress pics up tomorrow

Only things I've paid out for are
Car £150
Backbox £20
2ltr breaks £20 (still need to fit them)
Paint which I should be getting tomorrow (will be about £60 ish for the basecoat as I've already got laquer ect)
Everything else has been free.
Boot just cost me a few hours work same with sorting panels.
Respray again won't be costing anything bar materials.

I got bored sitting around on Saturday so thought i may as well do abit on the corsa
Saturday 15th Jan
Stripped the boot down.
Out came the grinder to clean up the edges
Cut up a piece of metal to fit the boot lock hole
On to the welding
While i was sorting the boot gf looked bored so i set her the task of removing rub strips
Thought i may aswell sort out any dings and rust blemishes while i was at it on the bootlid
Boot lock all welded up ground down
Skimmed up with fibre glass
All smooth after a light skimming of filler
Aerosol primed up for the night
Seen as id started on the boot i thought i may as well carry on sorting out the rest of the bodywork on the car
Sunday 16th Jan
Nearside quarter panel
Offside rear quarter panel
Offside wind and door
Nearside quarter all skimmed up and sanded
Offside quarter all skimmed
Wing masked
Offside quarter masked
Boot masked
Nearside quarter masked
All primed up
Thats all for now but only owned the car for 2 weeks now
