This was my car done all the work to it :-) and the cv joint has gone on the volvo but i have loads of Plans for the volvo
Not updated this in a while due to shoddy internet... so here goes
Raided a white pre-facelift Mk3 Cavalier that came into my scrappy, got a shed load of spares, but the main thing was the pre-facelift blackout for the boot (mega rare on hatches) most Cav's come with the stupid little triangle lights on them, the one fitted is off a early pre-facelift mk3, and as saloon ones dont fit off the GSI etc it was a massive stroke of luck to find one at my local scrappy, Always prefered the rear boot panel being black on these, adds more of the GTE/GSI look of the Nova's Astras etc, along with the original black SRI grille that was sourced and fitted

After that i got round to sorting the rear arches out, as they had just been pelted full of bog and painted in what looked like some sort of rubber hammerite as you can see in the pics above, this let the whole car down so they needed sorting, both had the dreaded rust cut away and welded, a skim of filler and topstop to sort out any blemishes (Only got photos of one side due to time)
