Yep.. 10 years mate



A little update. I managed to get a little bit of time on the car yesterday.
I’ve had some issues with my GAZ suspension. The rear springs sit the car drastically too high and are showing no signs dropping.

Please Note... I dont wear nail varnish. They are the wifes hands :lol:















I’ve been on the phone to them as well as sending numerous emails and they have no problems in changing them which is great. But first they want me to build the car up to see how far it does drop. It doesn’t move as I’m 14.5st and even with me sitting on the back it goes nowhere near. So I’ll build it as they say then get them changed.
Anyway.. I then cracked on fitting some powder coated parts 































I also had a little play on where to put the swirl pot. I’ve decided on here, it just needs the base trimming so it doesn’t hang over the spare wheel well.





That’s if for now

WOW that is spotless nice project you have there

Looks good man!

You tried adjusting the stiffness of it bud?

As for the dampers. They are on there softest setting. The springs are definitely wrong matey.

Looks amazing buddy! those springs look the same size as standards?

Tell ya what col its comin on nice now mate and the build is becoming more together aswell defo cant wait to see it all up and running

Cheers for the comments lads. It's coming on now

A bit more done. Got the tailgate and back bumper fitted with the lights. The bumpers have been wrapped up for nearly 5 years now lol. It was good to finally unwrap one and get it on the car aswell as the arches 











Then it was time to down tools before the red mist set in. The left rear arch was very slightly mis-shaped from storage so when fitting the rear lights, as you tighten the lights and they pull in on the rear arch I just heard a little crack. The high build primmer has cracked. No dramas as my mate who painted the car will sort it. But it did make me swear lol.





The cage and tank are getting picked up tomorrow so the swearing will start when fitting the main hoop in while trying to protect all the paint work lol.

Looking awesome mate! Shame about the arch! Now to try and not scratch anything whilst putting it together

Mate that's bad to hear after all the quality paint job ya got but at least it was only an arch and not the body work

The arches where sat in the loft like that for nearly 5 years. It's was bound to happen.

Cheers lads

When you've finished how much can I buy this off you for? hahaha (But semi-serious)

Hahaha thanks mate. But I'm sorry.. It will never be for sale. Obviously a big number would be considered but them numbers never exist for any Corsa.
Hence I'll never sell it
