craig

you should break this. for less hassle it could be sold as a whole, but as pete etc mentioned you will get more breaking.

lsd, leather, box, wheels will sale quick enough, but you will have to make room for engine, kit, and all other gubbins.

i cant see this being that nice an example. didnt you buy this off that very well known trader from south wales.....our mate chaos. :o

Hmmm, it looks worse than it probably is. If it's a nice straight car with no nasty rust it could be repaired - you're looking at Ԛ£500 for a back street job and someone here could sort you out with a rear corner. There are two metal bumper E30's in my local yard for instance - you'd only need the rear 1/4 back to the arch and stitch it in.

I see Chaos took the towbar for his fish&chip trailer off before he sold it! :D (sorry Nick)

i can sort you out with a back corner to arch, brand new rear panel if required and surely someone on the zone
can help put it together.

Craig , if them jacking points are as good as you say ,it might be worth cutting them out. I am sure Scotts will need replacing shortly ! :)
