haha tried that too. you would be able to get everything but the shell,. and it would end up costing you an arm and a leg.Originally posted by static1800 View Postahh ok, that would be the problem... shame really it doesn't look to bad.

this one isn't in that greater shape. plenty of dings, all the usual rust, so on and so forth, and it's been pretty molested now, must have been there for a while.
it does have central locking though

Buy it off them as scrap then. They might sell it as a metal shell or as scrap metal. Find out how much a golf bodyshell weighs, find out the going scrap metal rate per tonne and make an offer by weight. You're then not buying a car, just the metal and offer to deal with the non-ferrous scrap as a bonus to the deal.Originally posted by Water Boy View Post
