Nice work there. The car looks great.
Why cover the garage in wood ? Never knew the reason people done that - unless painting.

the garage is actually still owned by my mates dad, the doors are nackered form people trying to break in, he borded it up like that as he doesnt use it much, looks like its not in use.

like what?
my intentions were to just have a nice looking corsa, but be alright to use on track and have fun with, i dont want a proper track slag, maybe within the next year or so though.
am i going in the wrong direction with something
a little update - the screen and ps2 are now gone(that will please a few people), also sold my current exhaust which i needed to change for the xe anyways, i am going for a single 31/2" outwardly rolled tailpipe this time.

oh dont worry, graham is the top man for fitting vaux engines, i have been up their the last 2 days, he has been telling me what to do and i do it, would rather do some work myself to learn, so far i have stripped the wiring loom,all pipes and the manifold(as their was water in there
tomorrow graham is oging to time it up properly and then let me take gearbox off and maybe service it myself under supervision(fitting new clutch,cambelt kit,water pump etc) then its all upto graham to strip my old engine out early next week and then fit the xe, should be ready towards end of next week, i soo cant wait
