Please don't wreck it! it happens too often! If you can keep it for a few months i may well jump in the caddy and hook up the trailer and come and buy it.

yup you guessed it, Jarred and I acquired a new parts car ironically its the same 2 door i sold 2 years ago! we'll be getting rid of the shell sometime next week for next to nicks after we've finished stripping it, so who interested?

Seems to be a -ehem- small gap between your new guard and the front of the door...

Ok, fair enough. well if it goes then that's bad luck i guess. just seems a shame to scrap a good 2 door shell.

very true,
it's not something josh or I take joy in, I'd love to keep it as an ebay special track beater, or rat beater, but I have two cars, and not enough money for 3!

besides, the parts will live on in other cars, so good will come from it.

oh and if anyone needs any rust repair bits, panels, sections etc tell us now so we can cut bits out and what not.

Someone with lots of money needs to go buy a huge warehouse somewhere so everyone can go put all their Mk1 stuff they don't need anymore. Then people could come and buy the parts from them as they needed them and it would pay for itself somewhat.

That way it would all be in one place and everyone could benefit.

Who's got a rich, impressionable (and not very bright) Uncle?

correct, would love nothing better than to rat this baby, but 7 cars at my house plus a beetle project on hold = no go!
