After Fooking my carabic blue corsa after only several hours of owning it i decided next one would be simple

anyway, whipped everything salvagable off the carabic blue one, mainly the engine

past few nights ive been stripping some parts off it for a tidy up. engine has just had a good thorough service inc cambelt etc

its only a c14se but its all i can insure at the moment

anyway painted the bits up




plan is to find a nice simple white shell, have my bucket seats to go in, the engine and will be kept simple. along the lines of Ste's white one as i think it looks

More Progress:

finished painting the box and mount


put some loom on, and inlet gasket


took the sump off to investigate the tapping noise from inside, seems the kerb had dented the sump and the baffle had hit the pick up pipe and this was just touching a big end on the crank


new daily run around i got for free, just had to tax it


so while i get a shell and do bits to it i'll use this till the 6months tax runs out
