nothing to do with me but spotted today
Looks to have a big chunk missing from the passenger side sill area ( along whole car length ?? ) and the front between the headlights.

My guess is that it's been robbed for repair sections.

I was wondering at the description. Who had this gathering dust in the backyard then?

If this is one of the 2 left from the factory I wouldn't touch it, its never been sealed and the fiber glass will be fill of water, but im no fiber glass expert so it may still be viable

Campbell not on the drink yet hehe

I like the way they say..."All the floors are there"...Really?...What about the big square fking hole where the passenger seat goes then?..Looks like its sat outside for years judging by the algae on it..Might make a feature raised bed in someones garden but as for a body shell ..Forget it....Ziga

It looks remarkably like one of the ones from Bristol Avenue, wouldn't touch it with someone elses bargepole as it's been sat in the open for the last 20+ years. That sill probably broke off when they moved it.
