Cheers bigron, i chose that colour as it was the colour of my old Corsa. Then i saw yours before i did it which made me think it should pull it off well!

Thanks Mark.W I like my cars to be clean even if its intended for track use!

Spent most of yesterday on the car and finally got it finished

All that left is a good wash and its more or less done, a few minor things to sort like tracking and camber, some fuses blew so a few interior lights dont work and to get the temp gauge working.

Took a few pictures of the interior, only thing left inside is to fit my helmet net

Gave the car a good clean yesterday and fitted my helmet net as the last finishing touch!

I have some more things to do but ive now got the car to a point im happy with and I can now concentrate on my misses, who is due any time in the next month with a baby girl

As the sun was beaming I thought I would get some half decent pictures out in the open rather than in a dark garage.

Comments welcome
