Oh by the way, i have spare driveshafts from my x reg, no problems with them, kept for spare, if yours are damaged, by all means come and take one for replacement, FREE, i have front brand new spring for you also if that snapped?, headlights & indicator lenses also, all FREE for your cause fella, just let me know, what parts you need if i have anything else for the front i will give you

gotta love the members on this forum!  :mrgreen:

You sure do,
An absolutely fantastic bunch of people  

Owch!!!!! 8O  :cry:

Glad your ok mate even if you are a bit gutted.

It could have been worse tho.

Ps, take some oil down to where you went off and slap it down   Worth a try  

Ouch!!! That looks nasty!

Glad your ok bud!

If you fancy a trip down south you can have what you need for free! Won't have drive shaft or wing but your welcome to anything else.

there you go arron, by the way it is going bud, looks like you might end up paying for just a respray :wink:

Im not a tin top guy but il have a route see if there is anything i got I can post to you's.
p.s glad alls ok no one injured!!

Words of my dad many moons ago "Chris: Dont compremise on safety it will only bite you on the ass" lol

Make sense one tyre replaced could of saved all your hassle, I do have heinsight on my side though lol

really sorry to ear what happend just hope they dont wrirght it off if you need any parts mate i might be able to help

sorry to hear about the smash, at least you are ok  

I couldn't be more thankful for the offers  

However, I need someone who knows more than me  to come and have a look at it.
Holeinmk1 (Tom) has offered to take a look on Tuesday.

Need to decide if I can realistically take on the job. I can't weld and don't have a ramp so that would need to be done in a garage. I hope I can do it like, that'd be fantastic sense of acheivement getting her back on the road! And not just that, I loved the car.

But if Tom reveals major damage underneath I might have to sell the whole thing on here (it's not going to the scrappers!) Because I do have a ?700 budget.

Well, i'll keep you all updated,
thanks  

Absolutely gutted for you mate  :cry:
Don't have any bits (unless you could use some wiper arms FOC) but could offer a bit of free labour, work and imminent new baby permitting  :dontknow:
Can do front suspension competently if that's of any use.
Which boozer did you nudge? Starkies??

Chris

Hey Kav. Thanks for the offer of help, it's much appreciated. Pete's been over this afternoon and had a look: suggests I buy a new shell and swap everything over.

Only thing stopping me from doing that is i've nowhere to keep it. Do you know anywhere, that would be pretty cheap, and I can have two cars there and work on them?

It wasn't the Starky, no, it was a pub in Oswaldtwistle.

 

Oh and, thanks for that Pete!  
And the bits: headlights etc.  

where abouts are you in preston mate, sorry to hear the news, im more than happy to help if i can?

cheers
