;DBeen Busy this morning, some more pics The front end minus some bits, need to drill out indicators and head lamp bowls Inside front more or less stripped out Drivers footwell new one for here me thinks foot well again drivers side bulkhead passenger side drivers side drivers side again passenger side not as bad as drivers side passenger side parcel shelf sprinkling of the brown stuff maybe a new front subframe needed if you look hard enough you can see right inside hehe everything chucked in back I think a lot of the stuff taken off will be thrown away and new items brought prob be the best way, as storage is limited, and can get new stuff as and when it is ready to put back on daz

OH MY GOD DAZ
if!!!! IF you do decide to re weld it up i will shake you hand and give you a very big pat on the back,
i can weld but i would not go anywhere near that. so hats off to you
the car last week i cut up was in better condition than that and it was only £51,
ps i still have a complete bulk head section from that car i cut up.
GOOD LUCK

Done some More this afternoon, made some more holes and my pile of brown Rust got bigger hehe, also engine more or less ready to come out, just got to jack it up release bottom steady, subframe mounts, disconect clutch slave cylinder, and pop drive shafts, then lifting will be ready.
Not too much left to strip, rear bumper, lights, arches, rear windows and rear carpet, ph and rest of components in engine bay lol Daz
