Dads being a complete tit saying he wants the corsa shifted off the drive and sorted out in the next month or so... yeah right as if THATS gona happen, aint even got a new engine for it yet, let alone the donor car! says about storing it somewhere in a garage... Ok try find me one local then where I can store 2 cars, and have room to work, has electricity supply and dont cost stupid amounts of money to rent... he soon shut up... so now debating scrapping the corsa & giving up on it, cos im just gettin sick of all the shit he's goin on about...

also if they start seeing progresss on the car they might lay off your back instead of just seeing it sitting outside collecting rain.

whats your plans for the beast anyways paul? if you need a cally turbo, it sounds like it gonna be a mean machine eitherway 
Like the others mate, i would just do anything on it If you fokes see you working on it rather than watchy telly etc then they will keep stoom

I'll get the tooth-brush out & polish all the hard to reach places 
I need the 4x4 system, my uncles gona help me out with all the welding & making parts up, so no worries there!
biggest bitch will be trying to weld in the rear floorplan from the cally turbo, were not looking forward to that!!
i have access to a garage to do some work in, but only for a maximum of 6 weeks, so is why i cant do the major work till i get the other car
