Small update

My mate let me down on the bodywork as he has just had a customer wanting a VW splity camper van wanting a full restoration with money no object so I understand as he was doing mine for next to nothing profit wise

Got this through today, corsa B battery tray, £9 so happy, going to mount it on the floor behind the passenger seat




Been doing some work on the EPAS set up today, hopefully get it fitted this weekend as I'm happy with it now, update on that soon

I'm after one of those myself. Was it an auction or a link to them?

This car kind of reminds me of the South African Citi Golf. It's retro but looks brand new and has loads of ace mod cons. I'm surprised it doesn't have ABS and air con somehow grafted in. It's simply superb!

thanks very much Si, abs and air con would be too much weight for me tho



got this lot through today, so i can have some tunes in the car



going to mount the tiny amp raised off the back of the glove box then just plug my iPod in it, all of it cost £18 so happy with that
I already have some Pioneer speakers fitted in the OE position in the dash

Hopefully fit the EPAS for the final time tomorrow.....

eBay mate, SNIP SNIP, NAUGHTY EDD! try that

Craig has given/lent me some Courtenay rear springs to try, when they used to make their own, think they will lower the rear by 10/15mm, so will try them first before looking into other ways of sorting the rear height

[Benn]

I await lowered pics.

Opinions please people

Seriously considering a corsa B servo conversion due to wanting to free up space in engine bay for AFPR, oil catch tank and vacuum manifold when I fit the turbo stuff

BUT if you were me would you really want to cut a hole in a MINT battery tray for the servo conversion?

[Novasport]

No. Can you not find other places to hide the bits?

[Edd]

I could but it's going to start looking messy I reckon, pipes going everywhere etc

Plus that crap brake linkage bar thing behind the dash is a shocking design, I bet corsa A LHD brakes are awesome due to not having that bar
