It is clean

I can't even think about selling it. I'm not sure who's got our old silver one at this time. The guy I sold it to offered it me back for £2k but it looked tatty and run down. It was a minter when I sold it

Small update on plans

Been to the body shop this week to discuss a few things. Although not a full respray im going to get most of the car resprayed and have the strengthening kit welded in at the same time.

Its booked in for the first week of January

So im going to start stripping it down this month and doing a few loose ends in preparation for the work to be done

Pics along the way!!!

So picked up the morettes last week. Set about striping them down ready for a re-paint. Changed the side lights for some jaguar type ones after finding out they are a good fit. One was missing anyway......

They have been dropped at the bodyshop so should be done soon although in no rush to fit them. Staying in a matt black colour

Easy mate. Either use mini projectors which would simply screw into the orig reflector bowl with a tiny bit of cutting, or mount a full size one in its place and use the remains of the bowl to cover it.

Depends on time money and effort of course

You can actually buy 5 3/4" projector lamps which would work on morettes off the shelf.

As anyone fitted the bi xenon kit then to the corsa headlights. I assume that will be a easy fix for the upgrade. Ive ordered new offside engine mount so far

I just want to check clearances before I order the strengthening kit
