i know it needs some serios tlc,but before it get any more done to it im getting up on the ramps and checking underneath becuase i have a feeling its gonna be f**k as found a loads of rust on the sills last nigth i did not know about!
if it is rusted on the chassis leg and suspension cutps etc (read on migweb that the most common place) might just get rid now and buy either another B but a later one t reg + or get an early c
and that rokercover looks good simon is that 1 off a mk3 then?

that was my plan but if i need to make the decision if mine is rotten to buy 1 exsacly the same reg etc and find the same prolbem and have wasted even more cash onit
so i might look for an accident damaged late B and use mine to reapir and the parts off mine like bumpers etc that have been modded either that or put it down to unexperiance and impatient and get a new car prolby another corsa but a C
