I bought a damaged 2002 Tuscan about 2 years ago with the intension of repairing it, having a bit of summer hooning then selling it on.

Well apart from cleaning up the engine bay not much progress has been made.

I'm looking at 3 options

Keep it and eventually (hopefully) get round to sorting it.

Sell it as is and probably lose a bit on it.

Break it.

I'm leaning towards breaking it but is there enough demand for the parts? It does have a brand new chassis which i have been told you can't get anymore so that would probably the biggest value part.

What are your thoughts?

What's wrong with it? Might be in the market for a cheap one next week.

Same situation as my dad. He's got a VX220 Turbo with 11,000 miles on it which he started rebuilding around 5 years ago now. He's rebuilt several VX220's to a very high standard in the past, but just not had time to complete this one unfortunately. Probably as we've all left home, so have not been around to finish it.

I'd sell it as it is, that's what I've been telling my dad!

Please don't break it, it needs to be restored to its former glory by you or someone else.

What condition is it in and what's needing done?
