Post by Tommy »

Hi!
This is my corsa 1.4 Sport 1999
Got it just few days ago.
Got it like that so haven't dona anything to it so far except cleaning an washing :D
As previously it was owned by family with kid so was a bit dirty.

Its really nice car needs some work to be done here and there to put my own touches on in and to get it refreshed. 8)
Here some pics from car i will take some pics from inside soon.

And by the way i am from Fife Scotland.
Fell free to comment.

Here is the pictures that i promised basically nothing so different.

As can see from previous pictures it has a small fog lights so in here you can see the excellent wiring of them :lol:

Image

The speedometer is in so poor quality. It is lying by 10mph. So basically maybe somebody can tell me where i could get some new or different dials would prefer for just some other modified but well if will not find probably will buy somewhere the original ones or some different speedo

Maybe somebody have some ideals what kind of rims would look excellent on my car?

I just checked Lockwood home page as the dials are from there and i realized that probably i just have the wrong dials i don't need 10-130 but i need 0-130 or 0-140 but i think probably its 0-130mph.

As for the alloys i need to put vauxhall alloys because of the ET wright? Any other ones will rum at arches. As it is for the rear arches wright now. I have Fox alloys.

And maybe some members around fife or somewhere around me i am living few min from Elie can recommend me some garage where i can get color for my car or somebody who could paint me some parts!

the way you can tell if you have the wrong dials is by removing your clocks from the car and looking behind, if they're cable driven then they start at 10mph and if its electric it starts at 0mph i think its that way around :lol:

Sorry mate haven't been in here for a while! :meh:
I am from Elie its about 15min From Leven.

Right now the plan is to put on cav alloys just have to fix the sideskirt and all that stuff.
Found some cheap original bumpers to modify so i hope they will still be there when i will have money :D
Because right now the skirts look good and front bumper looks ok just the back bumper looks a bit higher.
Just plans plans and plans :lol: :lol: cant wait to get doing something. :)
