MrCarlos Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Its not often i advocate killing one but the best thing for that car was to be broken for spares , beyond saving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davep Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Car was not rotten - had anyone actually looked at it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny D114BCW Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Yep two of us looked 2/3 years ago and it was rotten. So being left outside since then won't it done it any favours unless it rained holy water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEIL W Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Car was not rotten - had anyone actually looked at it? I went & saw it - took the boot lid. It was totally rotten especially the boot inner area. Interior was complete but very faded - 1.9 Engine not running Breaker said he'd been offered £600 for the car complete but said no when it was for sale at I thnk £850. From prices he advertised the parts off the car he was trying to make that figure. Like an old dog - it was kinder to put it down 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davep Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I had inner wings and front panel assy and that was ok except for usual place under master cylinder. Car has provided parts to keep others going so its passing was not in vain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
