View Full Version : I feel like a commited a crime :(
Helped Jonny_Ayr scrap my old GSI today :cry:
:( Sad day for us.
It could have been saved but neither of us have time or money and have a corsa gsi coming tomorrow to be broken for spares.
It was in need a fair amount of welding.

some camber on that trailer lol
It was Jonny_Ayr's car i sold him it in october.
We tried to remove the window surrounds to no joy and the windscreen had a crack in it .
The shell was literally bare, except the pedals and the rear windows.
I bought the car originally for £80 off a friend, not running, i carried out a repair to the wiring loom leading to the crank sensor & distributor, and it fired first go, renewed the rear brakes shoes, cylinders, front>back lines, balljoints, trackrods, and generally aimed for MOTing it, got some welding done, got the interior immaculate (Vaughan will vouch for it)
Got an unrefusable offer on an XE'd corsa, so Jonny offered me £400 and it was his, then he put it for an MOT at a main dealer garage because it was local and £25, failed on 2 pages so he stripped it. -

Space was needed asap, got a corsa gsi arriving tomorrow to strip.
Using bits of it to tidy up my corsa gsi, and bits to tidy up jonnys soon to be XE corsa.
LOLCOPTER at that rear arch lol lol slanty shanty much?

Slammed lol Loving the trailer failure, was it built by the guy that did that arch lol
I would be gutted if that was my arch
rofl at the arch,whoever fitted that must have been absolutely bolloxed! lol
I said that aswell in his original thread, fitted in the dark by stevey wonder with the lights off after consuming too many sherberts lol
Was like that when the car came into my possesion :(
looked quite good in the picture except the arch, shame it died. Was it welding it failed MOT on?
Horn, welding, welding, welding, welding, fuel cap seal, seat insecure off the top of my head
Well needs must, no point keeping a car for the sake of it.

Some of the parts on that motor were good and the interior was spotless! But the shell had seen better days and had the wiring! Gone to a better place IMO
BTW, did you keep the ID ?

i done the same to my calibra but used a hacksaw :d
BTW, did you keep the ID ?
silly question mate, it illegal to use this ID on another shell, that's called ringing, unless you get the brand new 5 grand shell from Ireland,
Nah Vaughan, i did suggest it, i found a vin plate off my dads manta gte in his toolbox lol.
It wasnt the worst but it wasnt my car to make the choice sadly.
I've been clearing my garage for some time but sadly i still have a lot to clear out so had no space or i would have gladly taken it back.
