Opel treffen....


Benn.. Do the bay.. you got the skills

[Iain]

That's some pretty impressive smoothing. He's even done away with the suspension top bolt/nuts somehow!

[General Baxter]

id like my plugs and leads changing please lol

[Rich]

how the hell.... he must of smoothed it all in and painted after putting the leads plugs in lol

[Graeme]

He definayely isn't going to like servicing it that could of only been done in situ there is no other way of doing it (rocker cover I mean)

[Spudly]

Aye i spotted the lack of servicability on the engine but how the funk has he done away with the strut top bolts thats whats confuddled me lol

Captive nuts on the underside somehow methinks?

[mayhem]

nuts on the underside.

the rocker cover is easy.. just grind the 'lower' piece of the cover away (with the pipes). he just needs to remove his rocker cover and he got the plugs and cables.

[twistysnovagte]

awsome car imo!

[burgo]

shame about the indicator fitment :(

[Pistol Pete]

Cant say i'm overly keen TBH. Gone to all that trouble of smoothing the engine bay, sorting the bodywork, but could'nt get the (VW Polo?) headlights and indicators to fit properly?

[stevie-p]

just noticed also the bonnet over hangs the grill?

[Pistol Pete]

Bad boy style. Naff IMO.

[loggyboy]

Alot of work done there, but even so, just to be picky, the headlights/indicators could have been done a little better. I mean, if your going to that much trouble, why leave them looking out of place.

[Benn]

Oooooooooooooooooooooo love that bay. Bulk head looks odd tho.

[Benn]

Ah, might have too look in to that, like that its hidden up in there.

[Martin]

Go full on benn.. will go well with the new handles ;) lol

[Benn]

Cant do full on, its an everyday car.

[Martin]

[Benn]

Nah, thats no fun for me, i like that my nova can look good and still do everyday. Went to pool in it yesterday to pick up 5wheels for my mate.

[burgo]

bennn corsa wiper motors work well and are fairly hidden. plus they plug straight in
