suicide door on the donor car that is as the lock was jammed shut

seriously though got hold of an astra sri estate with a 2.0l 8v for free, this will do nicely as it will suit the theme, retro,



firstly got the engine out the corsa and threw it away



then stripped the astra front end, gonna keep the seats too just change them slightly.



then had fun with a reciprocating saw (gotta buy one so fun) and cut the front end off as all the running gear will be used






had a race with some snails that were living in the car too

.
thats all for now gotta get a cossie repaint done before i go away in two weeks

If it's just for the underside then getting it zinc plated would do a better job of protecting it because it will protect the metal even if it gets scraped off
