Well it's better than a lot of the Corsa B's you see about imo, only bits i've found are what you've said, o/s rear quarter and its surface and the sill, usually no sills left.

I know it's serious...
It will get sorted after new year as my Holiday is taking up all my savings.
Here's two photos I took on saturday whilst out a wee blast!

It's older than me, probably better nick!
If I had the money i'd get it painted but it'll not be this year.
It'll be at Billing polished up with its rusty o/s arch and cracked b piller.. Who cares!

Looks so much better on the 3 spokes IMO.
You need to sort them badges though mate, they are awful

Those badges are getting binned for new ones when it gets machine polished end of the month, is there any measurements on here for where they should be? Cheers

Not sure about measurements but they should line up with the top of the number plate recess.

No really big updates..
Done the head gasket and timing belt on it a couple of weeks ago.. Gave it a service - oil, filters, plugs and some nice Magnecore HT Leads, seems to be running mint!
Also fitted a MK1 Punto rear wiper and the original front splitter, that'll be pretty much it for Billing!
Still undecided wither to bring it to Billing on the original 3 spoke wheels or my Compomotive MO5's ?
Will get some pics soon
