I have a bare body with everything stripped out. EEEEK! :shock: Rust everywhere. Floor panels gone. A pillars eaten away. But windscreen aperture is sound... :D

I am forced to abandon the series 1 bodyshell due to excessive rust. Luckily I have traced a series 2 bodyshell which be used for the restoration.

That's a shame. But glad you have another shell that is suitable! :D

Ons year later.... Time constraints and financial issues. I have managed to build a 13B (based on import turbo engine]. The bodyshell has been moved to my brothers workshop who builds muscle cars. So I am super excited.
