Surely beyond recall as a vehicle in itself no?

But excellent to use as a ringing kit on a nicked Mk2 GT..............

If it was rebuilt on a jig anything is possible, I saw one of the works MGA's built from what can only be described as a cobweb, but at least it was the original rebuilt , rather than used for its identity on an donor car.

Moving it without causing it to fold in half is going to be fun, not much floor anywhere..the rear spring end is through to the boot.....come to think of it,...so is everything else! Wink

I know a few cars that in the past I've politely asked if they were for sale and got the answer 'no, I'm going to do it up', which is fair enough, no harm in asking.
I just find it sad that some of these cars are still standing in the same place, untouched 15-20 years later and now look like this poor car!
...and another car I knew of (a tidy Hillman Husky Estate), sitting in a front garden, had a sign in the window 'NOT FOR SALE' , unfortunately it stood for so long, it was a wreck, vandals smashed all the windows and in the end the house was sold & demolished and the land cleared.
The car scrapped Sad
