Someone did a pick up Corsa over at rat-look, needs some exta bracing in the back, but it looked kind of funkey. Cheers mate, should be getting some stuff done again soon to 50's it up a bit more.

New update:

Had to sort the back arches out im very happy with how they are now

This is how they first were shaped did not like them one bit

So ended up cutting them off and starting again



Both arches cut looking alot better


Took a quick pic of engine bay not the cleanest but


Most of body work is done now so should have it sprayed in next couple of week

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/specialistpaintscom << seen on ebay other nite them candy paints i remember you said you were looking for a colour id say go mad

[Sumo_corsa]

cheers think im just gunna spray it black for now seen as the pait is only 1 pound a tin not much money atm as im a student and work for peanuts at my job but would consider doing it in glow in the dark paint ::)

[M4RSH4LL]

would be different ... police would pull u over all the time i bet if you did :L

[loppylauz82]

i know this is a daft question but what spary did u use on your wheels did u have to prime them first ive got som alloys comming n wanna do them black

loving what u done so far

[Sumo_corsa]

Hey I just used 1 pound a tin paint in a rattle can from pound shop worked a treat no need for primer as the paint is classed as primer might need to laquer but that's about it and thank you

[loppylauz82]

thanx 4 the tip m8 might ave to do my new alloys like it

[Sumo_corsa]

Its really easy bud give them a quick blast with hose pipe first to get rid of the dust but ye its easy what wheels are they

[rems]

looking good mate

similar to my project arch and shape wise

what wheels you gunna run? unless you have said already

[Sumo_corsa]

cheers mate and dunno might keep same wheels on but might save up for some euro style ones buddy

[rems]

ah ok gunna need some wide spacers by the looks of it if you run them wheels

imo i reckon DEEP DISH

have you cut the wing so you can lower it without scrubbing?

[Sumo_corsa]

No wud it make a difference if u cut into metal bit of the arch and really want some deep dish wheels but there too expensive xx

[rems]

it will help when lowering it and if you get wider wheels otherwise the wheels will scrub and shred the tyres so it is best to but see how it goes mate
