Well after mucho consideration i gave up the hunt for a mint shell to start my fast road/track car with when a mate in a pub mentioned a little red merit sitting on his drive. Anyway a few pints and £50 later she was mine.

The shell isnt that corroded just needs a new front pannel, arch wing and maybe doors. It will most probably have an xe in it unless an uber nice 8v comes allong.

anyways here she is
