BIVA? Aint that one of them furry things with big teeth that build dams?

Saved a Viva and cut up a Subaru, that's all i can see here. Excellent work. Cant wait to see it done and glad your not going down the funny arch route.

yep needed the front end and rear archies but on the plus side the 1800 had no floor's both side's or inner cills left , tunnel was rotten from a leaking heater matrix so 3 became 1 and all weighed in but still got plenty or spares left if anyone needs anything

just got the front archies done with just the front spoiler now to sort out now but the main thing for us is that we have managed to get most !!! of the scooby inder the viva without the big bodykits

Very impressive stuff - like the new arches , didnt the South African Firenza's have that type of arch (rounded rather than sweeping)
Love the fact that the overall shape of the car is still a Firenza - without the need to go with old nail wide arches.

Subaru rally heritage with old school firenza skin lovely :D

Personally, I say well done for saving something of a rot box Viva... Even it is the aft half of the shell.

Mind, you could have made a BBQ out of the front end and salvaged a bit more. :D
