Ok got 2 corsas and my plans are to make 1 out of them lol

Here is my road going one.
1.2 gsi rep
solid underneath for the year



And here is the other car



This one is a 1.0 12v V reg 2000

Been lying up for 8 months.mouldy interior etc yuk.

Took carbon bonnet and front 2 wheels off just now




Plans:
Strip white gsi
Paint and fit kit to black one
sell compomotives
5 stud conversion
cally turbo wheels (hopefully)
if not
speedlines will go on and no hub conversion
sell piper system from white one
interior
suspension
and sell it as a standard 1.2

Need to find a decent interior for the black one.
Maybe vectra gsi seats,iv got 2 corbeau recliners that need a trim i may price up.

No plans for the engine side of things yet.Keeping my eye out for a good priced x16xe.Dont want to go down the 2.0 road again

Also started to make this years ago


crap ps on car


May start it again and get it finished,will prob fall apart though when on car lol

UPDATE

Car had a bead leak and the interior was smelly and mouldy.
So ripped it all out,easy job
Floor had a built in swimming pool,never new this was an optional extra?








Found why my power steering wont work
Water has been into the plugs on the eps ecu



Bumper off,battery tray out


Engine is a beast

Got the speedlines off,going to start refurning them soon.Look at the front tyres lol



Cooper S rear valance,tried it on the car tonight for the first time after starting to make it 2 years ago lol.
Love it,looks shit side on needs to shape more around the wheel,will work on it and see if i can get it better





Looks wank here

That bumper is awesome As you said a little bit more shaping around the wheels will make it even better.

Got your monies worth out of those tyres didnt you

really like that back bumper, but as you say it needs more work at the back of the bumper to follow the wheel arch a bit better
