Welcome to the site, looks like a nice solid shell you've got anyway. I'd love do do a complete strip down like that. It should be mint when its finished

thats quite a huge hole to fill in the chassis leg but having it up on its side like that makes it much easier to work on eh

nice work mate

was it daddy cav you bought it off?

Daddy Cavs vectra engine came out of a calibra.

cheers lads for the comments
yes its nice and easy to work on its side, the legs werent that bad to honest only a couple of small holes but i chose to cut all the bad metal out and sand blast the rest,then fabricate replacements that way it should be solid when finished i hope

hats off to you top job you have done so far i looked through my file of cavs and dont seem to have yours !
