what the fcuk?? why??

[craig green]

If I'd known the shell was up for grabs, I'd have maybe had it.

I expect its cleaner & straighter than mine. Not too far away etc.

[lee coley]

there my wheels

[NovaLad]

That shell is mint.

[NOV4_SPORT]

so why was this shell scrapped ? pretty confused ..............

[Plug]

we all are confuzzed lol i would have had the shell aswell looking for a project lol

[cornish]

Yeh the shell was pretty mint, i took some pics before i scrapped it as i was going to put it on eBay but just couldn't be bothered. I'll upload them in a minute. (I have taken all the panels off, incl. doors, so will keep these for a later date).

I've just had enough of it to be honest, was a shame to see it go but i'd lost interest. I stripped it down to the bare shell for a nut and bolt rebuild but with work mounting i've just had a less and less time to actually do anything with it. Last straw was a couple of weekends ago when i pushed it of it's trolley at my unit in a rage when i couldn't find some tools i was after, the passanger side arch got dented and scratched down the side, so i just thought **** it.

I do intend to have another soon when work calms down. My welding and general fabrication is pretty **** hot these days (without sounding too bigheaded :roll:) so the plan will be to either RWD or 4WD it, but that won't be until the new year.

[Plug]

oh well would have been nice to know i reckon people would have been interested lol

up to you thou

[Ash]
