If you want money for the car, best thing to do is get it looking as tidy as poss. IMHO i wouldnt give you more than 200 quid for that as id need to get a new bonnet, get the rear quarters painted, sort out the leaky sump, find some rear seats, sort the doors out etc.. By the time ive done that I probably would have spent another 200 quid plus put in a load of effort.

Do these jobs yourself though, and it may make 5 - 600 quid depending on the quality of the work and the condition of the rest of the car.

However, there are people on ebay who appear to pay thousands of pounds for complete heaps of ****, so i suggest you slap it on egay with a 500 quid reserve and see if you strike it lucky before you start getting the sandpaper out lol

^ lmfao, yeah was about to say sell it on ebay and you'll be looking at a couple grand - I think they should make new adverts, "Ebay: Proof that a fool and his money are soon parted" lol

Either that or break it, you'd probably get more than the cars worth in parts.
