Picked up the car from the farm today and started putting her back together

Tom very kindly fitted the sideskirts, i fitted the wheels at work and a new battery. fitted all the seals back to the drivers door and steam cleaned the door car (the water came off brown. )

left it in the workshop, sorry about the pooor pics, my phone is very bad..









looks as though the top mount needs replacing on the N/S as it has loads of play in it!

SOOOOO much still to do

Been busy recently with the corsa and she's now ready for an mot, but still not finished!

I have now fitted the leather from my calibra which is pretty much mint..

Pressure washed most of the interior plastics that i could be arsed to remove

Now properly polished the roof

Before:



After:



fitted a rear view mirror and replaced the neon washer jets with oem washer jets

Took some decent pictures



TOOO low



Needs a new rear silencer as i dont like this one, plus i have a new tailgate to go on



Back end sits nicely - rear disc conversion and a good little purchase, Wheel bolt caps





Mint leather - with the heating wired up and working! easiest thing to do







MOT on tues, then buy some tax then im on the road again! yey!

Engines staying standard, not spending too much more on the corsa, need the pennies for my Rx7
