Hi all
I am doing a slow build on my 1994 Flame Red Corsa sport.
About the car:
Brought this from a friend with a blow 1.4 engine for £200.
De stripped it and removed the badges.
So far i have pulled the old engine out and replaced with a 2ltr 8v from a Astra GTE.
Which has a F15 attached to it  .
I also brought some black tigra wheels from WarrenG and fitted them.
It has front calibra seats with the heaters wired up.
Fitted Crystal Headlights from Green Thing yesterday (16/07).
Have given it a polish a couple of times since it has been sat on my drive.
To-Do:
Unfortunately i have to take the box back off as i forgot to grind a lump of metal off the block stopping the gear linkage to move.
Wire the injector rail up.
Get 4 new tyres.
Sort out any problem i come across
and finally get it insured and taxed.
Some pic of so far:
Comments welcome

Been a long tme since i posted in here but some big updates.
I've scraped the 2ltr 8v and replaced it with a let.
Its now sitting on polished cav slabs wraped in toyo proxies.
The car is almost complete sent the logbook off as 2lt the other week.
Just a few little bit left like gear linkage exhaust the sort the teething problems out.
I will put some pics up this afternoon.
All comment will be welcome
