standrd rear lights and change the corsa wheels (not for cav slabs or speedies) and that will be awesome. i really like that, looks really clean and straight.

Love it!

Because its fucking old skool!
A few people were doing this before valvers were even thought off. My mates ex GF has a mk1 nova with a 1.8 8v conversion done by a vauxhall dealer in 1988. It was in total vauxhall a few months back with his throttle bodied xe saloon.

Looks a nice one mate, as said change the wheels and the rear lights and will look superb.

thats the way to go.





(old photos, a lot more tidy now, still havent fitted my cage though)

EDIT - actually it depends how clean your interior is! the only reason i went down this route was that the original GTE trim was fooked, seats were torn, door cards broken etc. try not to waste a good interior - some bits are getting hard to find
