thought id start a log of my project,
okay, its a corsa b 1.4 8v, 1998,

was pretty much standard when i bought it apart from sport/Gsi spoiler colour coded bumpers, badgeless grille,

so far ive bought a straight through centre section, cav gsi steering wheel,new back box and some Gsi interior,

the back box was pretty tatty when i first put it on, but when i took it off to put my new mid section on i gave it a good clean and is looking much better,
ive also put on my steering wheel, drilled the airbox, and fitted the bottom part of the rear seats, ran out of time today so will do some more tommorow,

heres some pics

the 1st two pics are of the car before i cleaned the back box

rest of the interior in goin in tomorrow if the weathers good, new centre section is goin on aswell,

also been offered some cav fanblades with good tyres, in black with opel and vauxhall centre caps and come with a spare, for a good price
so debating if i should get them or wait and keep looking for some nice cav slabs near my area or some cav cdx wheels

The car looks good.
Where did you get that steering wheel from ?. I'm feeling that one :D
The rest of the car aint too bad either, nice touch on the exhaust tip. The stocks ones are never good looking.
