well folks im nathan,new to this site so go easy on me
got my hands on a fairly decent corsa last year sitting on slabs,standard hieght and 67'000 miles on the clock
so since over the year or so my car has went through a serious transformation with lots of tasty mods
im going to show you guys what work has been put into it and what else is going to be done from last year and so on
this was the first day i got her
then this picture is her on coilovers
anyway thats all i wanted to do is just leave her like that and then i thought about setting out a goal that ive always wanted to do,a project
this is just a short intro about the car an i just want afew people just to have a look and get to know me and then ill start posting up all the picture of the progess that has been carried out ....

well over the past year most of my plans have been completed
i just got her back there from the body shop to get afew touch ups but at the end of the month she's going to get the bonnet,both rear panels,both front pannels and both doors re-sprayed.i have already got the boot de-wiper and resprayed along with the rear bumper,will post pics up soon of that work being carried out...
next plan is to sort the rear suspension out and drop a 1.4 engine in

the first thing i wanted to do and im sure its the same with any other person is suspension
i did have coilovers in but they where only in for a short time just to see me through until i saved up to get my hands on some GAZ coilovers
i wanted something different for the body and i managed to come across this flushed bumper that caught my eye.this isnt everyones taste lol
from this
to this

Looking good
I do quite like that front bumper, just the number plate location doesn't quite do it for me, but if you like it that's all that matters
Good work

thanks lad
your words are correct if i like it thats all that matters
cant do much about the plate cause the police in my town wont let u of with the plate on the window so thats the way the cookie crumbles lol but i like how small it is and were it sits
