Don't want to sound too negative but it comes down to £125 to you from scrap yard or over £3k from you to `rebuild`. Hard decision but we do put down animals when they are in that state should be the same for a car! GOOD LUCK whatever you decide.

2 tintops.
3 cabbies, 1 with G60 power, just for fun.
Volvo T5, just for fun.
3.1Ltr V6 Dutton Leggera, just for fun.
Renault 5 GT Turbo, just a money pit!
Several boring cars, just no fun!

Steven,
Tried to send you a text but can't get through.

Did you want floor pan and front engine bay,

Front lower window surround has now sold.

If you don't want it I will chop off the mounts and suspension turrets and bin the rest.
