i baught it with the bumper in pieces as the lad before put it thruogh a fence:roll:

so i done a quick bodge so i could get on the road with it, it has a few3 more moinths tax & test left so im going to use that up. but it does have a few bits of the dreaded rot coming throu the floor, sills etc so i think im going to reshell the engine etc as ive just been offerd a very good shell thats been hidden away for a while, watch this space:thumb:
