Took fucking ages mate but persevered
The best bit about that is I found the paint in my parents garage the other day from when I had my Nova GSi in 2001

Gave the engine bay a quick spruce up today, needs a lot more time spending on it but for half an hour it looks much better IMO
Before
After
And these turned up for the future repaint / rebuild
Cheers Ant

Great weekend with the Corsa at Billing, car worked perfect with no issues and I was giving it a fair amount of stick on the way home, the 1600 runs very well
Still need to fix the number plate
Was the only genuine GSi at Billing

It is looking pretty decent from them photos. Aye they deffos are like. I put the original GSI wheels on the GSI the other day and I don't know if it's because they're in bad condition but I'm considering other wheels as apposed to getting them refurbed.

What wheels are on it now mate? Team Dynamics?
I don't mind the original rims but they look tiny plus the big balloon tyres don't really do it for me.

Had 16 inch Millie miglia's but I took them off and put some GSI wheels on but I don't know, I think it's because they're not refurbed etc and look shit lol

I also had a good look at this at Billing - very nice example.
I didn't realise it was yours however. I assumed you would be on the CS stand so thought you hadn't gone.
