Hey Mark, I got your text last night (phone died just after) Will give you a call in a bit. Here are a few shots of the car. They are awful I'm afraid, simply due to the fact it's been chucking down with rain all day - enough for me not to want to get my camera drowned.....so I just had to take these shots from the front door. Apologies for that.... The splitter is provisionally reserved and I've sent a LOT of PM's in response to requests, but no one has confirmed they want anything yet. I fully understand seeing as there has been a massive lack of photos. Now that I've got the Lotus in and stored down at the unit, I can concentrate on getting this car pulled apart starting tomorrow. I can assure anyone interested that it runs/drives PERFECTLY....it's simply the rust that is stopping it from being saved. Shame, but if it means more cars benefit then it can't be all bad?

As with a lot of the things on this car, someone 'wants' them, but until I see the money (or at least a deposit) they are still very much for sale. I thought you needed to divert money 'elsewhere' at the moment anyway? Just think how far the £350 I am asking will get you towards being back on the road? I'll call you tomorrow.

Is the front bumper okay behind the number plate Bruce? Mine is distorted by the plate bracket pressing against it. let me know some prices for the bumpers and RH wing when you get a minute.

No worries Ed, apologies for not doing it sooner but I've had a manic few days and getting around to breaking the car is taking more time than I expected! I'll give you a call direct once I've had a good and thorough look at the bumpers and wing.

Foxy just offered me a front bumper but if your is the right money and nobody else needs it, I'll probably still buy it as a spare for when I inevitably rip the splitter off the bottom ;D

I just got some good news ;D Plus I could sell my Rotas to cover some of the cost...

Right, apologies for the long delay in updating this, but with sorting out my new project, doing welding on a friends car, selling two of my cars and getting ready for Christmas...it's taken longer than expected. I got the car mainly ready on Christmas Eve and did the rest on Boxing Day and the following day with some help from these guys towards the later stages. As you can see the bodyshell is completely stripped with the exception of the rotten nearside door and wing. I have pretty much everything from the car including the FULL running gear. I've updated the original thread with a basic list and some prices, but it's impossible to list everything, so please ask. The items sold or 'reserved' so far are as follows: Front & rear bumpers (sold) Front OS wing (sold) OS door (sold) Boot release (reserved for Pickmeup) Front splitter (reserved for Pickmeup) Fuel lid cable (reserved for Dave Dorson) Power steering (reserved for Cobblers) Please leave a message here or PM me if interested in anything from the car.

Oh, Bruce - Whats the rain rail and roof like? Can't remember if I've asked.
Any idea when Ryan can ferry the PAS kit up my way? I can pay you paypal for it now if you want, or send cash dollars down with him.

Hi Dave, I checked the rain rail while I was at the unit yesterday....it's in top condition. If you want it, let me know and I'll drill the rivets out to remove it for you. If anyone else wants any bits, please let me know. I'll be posting this up on MX5 Nutz later this week, but wanted to give any of you RR's a chance to get stuff first I might post some of the more universal things like the wheels in seperate thread. VW and other 4x100 owners probably wouldn't check this thread.
