so project 'reshell my corsa' was started this morning by taking the engine out the old corsa and so far looks like this....
When the engine was removed, the underside of the chassis fell to bits on the driveway, mmm tasty, actually scares the crap out of me to think i've been driving it like this. 
Will put a proper thread up in projects section when it's done of all the work start to finish in more detail, just thought the state of this shell deserved its own thread!

there is something seriously dodgy about the mot tester that was looking (or not looking) at that car last.
the corrosion on that must have been in a similar condition to that for the last year at least
