You may remember this....
This was my damaged Corsair which was bought with the intentions of repairing it.
This is it now!
After all the bodywork has been done, all stripped back to bare metal, primered and almost ready for the first coat of Blue Mink metallic!
2009 will hopefully see it back on the road. There is a heck of a lot to do once I get it back from the body shop but that is the fun; rebuilding stuff that me and my little lad can do!

All still there except for the grille and headlights (Mike) Unique telephone holder... (Mike again) and door mirrors (some chap in Denmark)
Car still starts and runs.... will have to get round to disposing of it soon though. All the body panels are fine, the 7 spoke Ford 17" wheels have brand new Goodyear F1 tyres on them. Interior is OK and it does have the side airbags so someone will buy it... front facelift bumper still on as is back one with park sensors!
A sad state of affairs but as parts are now dwindling even more, I couldn't afford to have a car which wasn't reliable enough to get me all over the country at a moments notice!
