My father had a 65 maroon corsa. His father sold it for him without his concent while my father was in the Peace Corps, and then that guy crashed it creating a nice pile of scrap. My dad had to come home to find his car gone and learn that it was crumpled up like trash paper. This was long ago. My father bought another one a few years back then sold it to my little brother. He was foolish to have sold it for $300. It was worth so much more than that. now he madly regrets doing that. I love those cars and you have one beautiful corsa on your hands......I love that car.

Norm, I like the Spyder rims, gives the cars a sporty appearance. I still have the wire wheel covers on my Vair, but will be putting some sort of custom wheels on the car when it is restored.

Do your Spyder wheels have correct backspacing for the Vair, or were you very concerned about that?

ah! I was about to say....I saw your previous cars, and I thought "now why the hell would he toss out a 93' formula?!" Loving the cars you have on this site though, voted for yours in the competitions I saw on here...good luck!

heh... I know the significance of your plates! They are the first five numbers of your VINs... my Corsa convertible, of course, begins with 10767... wink image Let's see, 107 for Corsa, 37 for the coupe, 67 for the 'vert.

Wow, a nice garage! Love the two Corsas, and the Firebird looks like a beast. I'm hoping to add a 140/4 Corsa coupe as a counterpart to my 180/4 Corsa convertible too.
