I was just having a neb around a local scrappy and i found a gem and a half, a perfect OPEL ASTRA GSi in white.
It's missing only a few parts as i was told it was an ex rally car. Needs front bumper, rear bumper and hood.
Plans:
Spray Flame Red or Arden Blue
Bumpers
C20XE
New exhaust
Lowered
Rims
Price:
V$1200 + V$300 for hatch and doors + mirrors
What am i left with:
2JZ E36
Golf MK2 C20XE
ASTRA GSi Street Car Project
And a lower bank balance V$9405

Was just on the phone with a vauxhall breakers, said that he has some taillights and headlights with sideskirts and front bumper for V$400 so i said yea (obvs), waiting for the bloke to sort postage as too lazy to collect and while i was waiting i searched GumTree for a C20XE and i found one, all the way at the bottom of the country. 🙁 But im gonna offer V$800 for it since they are rare.

I managed driving it without a radiator, didn't need one 🙂 but u will cuz ur driving style.
Honestly, i rag the bollocks of everything ive owned. In my eyes break it, so you can fix it and enjoy it longer.

So while waiting for parts to arrive i bought some Greddy Type - R Coilovers with matching springs from a mate and put that onto astra as well as some black steelies which look really good.

About an hour later, i received all the parts for the C20XE and body such as lights etc. I am still searching for a rear bumper.
