took a small journey to sheffield on friday to fetch some sport seats from a friend, the seats cost me absolutely nothing and look in decent nick too. in my pictures ive only shoved the headrests behind the seats to see if i would like them so please let me know what you think

rear seats.


fronts, very dirty but just need a good clean when i can be bothered.


not a very good picture but ill post it anyways.


and again.


just a side image for now, ignore the rust on the bottom of the door/wing thats being sorted soon.


C/C welcome guys

Upside but no pictures until tomorrow.

In the week after work I've been slowly treating the rust under the car and undersealing but only managed to do the front&rear of the car and also both sills, just need to get the rest finished when I buy some more underseal.

Found a ginger corsa in the scrapyard so I now have in my possession..
Black carpet
Rear speakers with adapters
Black door interior handles
Black window winders
Handbrake plastic
And a few small bits, will get photos tomorrow as I'm not at work.
Not a great update but you get the idea
My front bumper and arches are off to the body shop at the end of next week too
