Contact Details: I check the forum most days, otherwise I'm happy to take call on "zero four zero nine, two three six, nine two six."

 

Extra Info: I purchased this car as an insurance policy in-case I wrote my daily off, or needed some parts. Upon further consideration the entire car is far too straight to part out. As many minds do, mine moved to an engine conversion, but with a from-scratch kit car already occupying my spare shed space, it seems silly to keep this shell and risk anything horrible happening to it. To make this clear, I have done nothing to this shell since I have had it aside from store it. I bought it as a body minus motor and gearbox, and as such have most of the electrical and mechanical pieces stored away in my shed. In the 12-18 months I have owned the car I have seen no change in any of the body work, even problem area's like the battery tray, doglegs, etc. All areas which have been blanked off have had metal welded in, see attached picture of headlight cone. Happy to take inspections for interested parties, or from one of the more trusted members in the SA area for interstate parties. Have more pictures available upon request.

 

EDIT: There's a brand new reskinned dash in there too.

Oh, I'm obviously not storing the car like this. It has two layers of tarpaulin over it with spacers holding it off most of the car body to allow any water which does get in to evaporate away.

 

Happy to answer any questions anyone has, or check on parts in storage.

 

Tim.
