Been nipping the wifes head for ages to get some new seats cause i want the ones we put into her mini. Finally she said aright i can have them for the corsa. There not brand new but there comfy as hell, Got them for a bargin price aswell. 10% of the real value £70 so couldn't turn them away

These are the beauty's


Just need a set of harness's to go with them

For a whole days work it doesnt seem like we got much done. While my mate was welding in the unwanted grommet holes i made a start on the little bits an pieces that needed done. Throttle cable back in, Clutch pedal in, Radiator brackets painted an back on. Arches all cleaned up and undersealed and finally got the bonnet catches finished :bounce:

Pictures as always.....







The car is back to this again hehe










More welding to get done through the week so will get the underneath of the car all sealed up soon

Cheers guys

Couldnt give an exact time for doing the bay, Done it over a couple of weeks. Done a bit at a time, seemed like it took ages an was never going to get there. Was just good to see paint going on

not updated for a while cause av not been near the car for ages. Managed to get down this weekend for a bit.

Pics as always.....

Part way through undersealing the underside



No pics of it all done, My hands were covered so didn't touch my phone

got myself a new steering rack, waiting on bits from powdercoaters so i can get it fitted


Finally got round to cleaning the gearbox up an getting it painted






Going to get the end plate done again, Doesn't look to good.

Had a little bit of time left so started stripping the engine






Thats it for now folks
