Well as some as you know about 5 months ago i bought C13RSA from a lad down south. The car was in a real mess everything was cracked, the paint had gone flat and flacked off. It was a real shame.
After getting it home an went over everything i even had the idea of bracking the car for bits, as i only bought the car for the reg plate. I planned of retracting the plate and then sell the car on.
So sat there thinking about what to do, Izzac (Flamingcorsa) rang me about somthing and we got talking.
After about half hour talking and txt'in we came to a deal where he would redo the corsa for me.
So off it went to Izzac's 
Came back last night and i can say i am please with how it turned out.
Went threw a MOT today and paper works ready to post tomorrow to remove the plate where it will be moved onto my twin engine corsa.
So all going well will be up for sale soon (already had one offer).
I know its not to everyones taste BUT if people know the cars history you will kind of understand why all the bodykit etc was done.

Orange mesh looks terrible, should have been black.
Who did this used to belong to? Andy?

Looks like its Sold aswell
Just done a deal with a mate for the car so all good.
He will be painting the mesh black as soon as he gets it (collects on Thursday)
As for the front bumper, the inta bumper which was on was a mess, i could of had it when i bought the car BUT it was in 50 million bits as the girl who owned it worked on a farm an went down a muddy road everyday and smashed it off.
All i can say is Chameleon where abit of a bad bodyshop to say the lease

On the whole thats a nice looking car, but a minor detail. Something needs doing where the arches meet the skirts so that it works as one continuous line front to back.
Would look spot on then.

Looked at that image.
Looked at the pic of C13 on our wall.
Just isn't the same. Same car maybe, but it just isn't the same. Don't like the colour, don't like that front bumper at all. Its gastly. Just looks like another corsa now.
All the leather and audio in there still?
It may have the plate, it may be the shell, but it ain C13 anymore.

Even if it still looked like it did when andy had it now, i'd still say most of you wouldn;t like it anymore. Nostalgic fuckers
