Decided not to strip it now! It's getting tracked instead, will be slow progress but it will happen!

Items needed:
Suspension
Exhaust
Bucket seats
Harnesses
Rear anti roll bar
Front and rear strut braces

Eventually will get a cage

Been a while guys! i decided to strip the corsa as i had bought a mk3 golf gti, that broke before i could sell the corsa so i seen it as fate!

I had already sold a lot of parts off the corsa, morettes, strut braces, rear arb, seats and harnesses, mhws, exhaust and suspension So to start things off i needed suspension, luckily Danny Phillips (Phillips_91) had a set of bilstein b4's with 60mm springs so i bought them off him

Old Standards


Old vs New


New Fitted


After fitting the suspension i decided to remove all of the black plastics and carpets out of the back



After i removed all of the plastics, i came to the conclusion that i needed some more bucket seats and harnesses, luckily Mark Prydderch had decided to split his corsa turbo, so i took a visit up to his and returned with these!





Then the old 1.2 decided to die on me so it was time for a new heart for the little beasty



I got told that a mates mate was selling a 1.6 engine with a few extras for an extremely good price, so i couldnt resist, i got down to the place where i was picking the engine up, we agreed a price and i came away with a lot of extras including powerbox, 4-2-1 manifold, 288mm v6 brakes, spare engine loom, driveshafts, spare ht leads and a few other parts!

Took it to a rolling road day with the local cruise i help out with and it ran a positive......



With a graph of...



Happy with that!

Couple of new pics







Got some goodies outside ready to go on hopefully this weekend!!







Sorry about the essay!!
