...working on rebulding/refining the Corsa, doing all the niggly things that have been bugging me for the past couple of years 
Taken some pics anyway.
Front end structure is back together:

Scuttle panel colour coded - did a complete strip down of my gun so set it up again on this...

Just have to spray up the new outer panels:

and make these two shonky bumpers into one good airdam:

Oh, and I advise anyone considering undersealing their car to buy one of these:

And a final one of my chief test pilot and engineer:

I'll do a proper project thread later but that's it for now

Yeah, turns out two cars can't occupy the same space at the same time.

I realise I was wrong before. I'm a bit of a southern badger tbh.
It's ok, not everyone can be Northern and therefore better.

Me too mate. But when all the crap was cut away, it was actually fine.
Less hassle rebuilding it than transferring plates etc etc.

Hoping to have wings and bonnet sprayed on the inside tomorrow, then do the outside Monday if I have time. Then all that's left is the bumper, shove some headlights in and get it MOT'd.
If all goes to plan, could be done by next weekend.

I'll take your Corsa. I have been a member here for 3 years or something, and only taken my car to two Corsasport shows
