Just need a new radiator and she's complete

Still got a lot more to do yet tinting headlights and sun strip and then actually give it a clean lol! It's so much nicer than my old one, makes it all worth while

Yeah I thought my ct9 was alright runnin 150bhp but when we took it off it was in need of a rebuild. Got a tdo4hl on now had that rebuilt it's spot on!

Defo keeping it as it is before the crash with the other glanza the power was perfect plus reliable

Thank you

Yeah you can do all of that with the vinyl! Looks amazing polished up

You should do it when I declared the colour change adrian flux didn't want any extra money off me either which is good!

I'm so happy you've started planning already. I can't wait to see it! Make sure you get a build thread up once you're well again!

Luckily I have very good contacts ;) I've bought the best of the best vinyl wrap, to wrap a glanza including materials in a standard gloss or matte colour you'd be looking at around £750. It withstands stone chips and fools everyone into thinking it's a paint job. Unbelievably happy with the colour! Dave does this at his unit in Preston near Manchester

Go for it Jay. I promise you'll never look back just build bigger and better

Thanks nick Dave has done an amazing job! Can't believe we've managed this without a payout yet!

My blue glanza WAS my pride and joy. Running 227bhp td04 at 0.9bar. Drove like an absolute dream. Bodywork was horrendous but none the less it was what I worked for. That was until a drunken driver wrote it off one bank holiday weekend. To put a long story short, she sped through a red light at 45mph to plough straight into the front of my car which was at the time stationary in the middle of a junction waiting to turn right. The girl was hysterical and begged us not to call the police; as soon as we did, she drove off. Police 5 mins later got her at her house which was 30 seconds away from the scene of the accident. To my surprise she blew over three times the legal limit. I was furious. My absolute pride and joy was written off because of a drunken idiot. She hit me that hard that the passenger side chassi leg is bent 90degrees, when you open the drivers door it drops, the whole car is now twisted but I was so happy to see my freshly painted alloys were untouched!!! The glanza took the hot really well considering her speed. Police were amazing, I couldn't fault them. However because she got breathalysed at home, she used that opportunity to say that is when she racked up a load of shots because she was "shook up." Because of the situation the police have had to send off for the timings of the accident as well as the score she blew on the breathalyser. I am STILL awaiting on results. Moving on, I decided not to claim off my own insurance as I do not want to lose my no claims. My solicitors are fighting against her insurance and I won't stop until they admit fault. The car has been inspected by her insurance and I have been offered a generous amount however her insurance are DENYING FAULT as being drunk is only a "small part of the claim." I decided to take things into my own hands and buy a shell. As my engine, gearbox and turbo kit are in too good a condition to sell on. I've put myself into a tight money situation to buy a full running glanza. Sold all the bits I needed to and then start transferring my engine over aswel as the gearbox, turbo, emanage blue, wheels, breaks, interior, facelift lights, steering wheel etc etc. Within 2 weeks this is the outcome in pictures. No expense spared on this car. The wings needed a lot of prep work to make fit however they fit perfectly now. I haven't driven since but I am excited to get this one on the road. It is still unfinished, we need to finish wrapping it in blue, bleed the brakes and fit the headlights Hopefully in the end it will all be worth the stress and pain I've been through! I will add more pics as the build comes along.

He's still got that glanza I went to view it last month

Get well soon!

You're always a good help arnt you thanks

Put it behind you and reshell it. I understand fully as a drunk driver wrote mine off 2 months ago. Glad you're ok. Everyone told me metal can be replaced and I just ignored them but now I realise it's true! Main thing is you're ok!

Just the 98spec black plastic grill in good condition please!

Will do!

When my new car is all built up I may have the time to then package it properly will be another week or so

Sold now sorry!

Sold

I couldn't post it due to it's condition I'd prefer people to come and see it in the flesh as I wouldn't want you to be disappointed when it got to you
