Whilst I've never been a Corsa fan, I've got to say that this build is amazing.

Looking forward to more updates smile

Amazing work!
A few of my mates used to love their Corsa B's, fun little cars when done properly!

Should be quite a weapon once it's finished. I hope the time and money spent sorting the handling works, my experience of the Corsa B is that it has the handling panache of a wet sponge, yet I've seen them post reasonable times on rally stages, so I suppose a bit of stiffening and some proper shocks and dampers (and a better steering rack) goes a long way.

Top job!

I had 3 of them when I was younger - 2000 1.0 12v Club (first car), traded for a '94 Sri 16v and traded that for a '99 1.6 16v sport.

I'd like a GSi with a red top.

Looks great.

Used to have a mk3 astra which I took from a 1.6 8 valve up to a C20let with ~370bhp (and other mods to match). Loved it to bits and it's still one of the few cars I regret selling.

Indeed, a couple of my friends built B's with the venerable 'redtop'. One of them was a home brew special and not at all tidy but it could really give my old Volvo 850 T5 a hard time in a straight line.

I can only imagine the C20LET is bonkers
