Damaged Tuscan

[DJR 7]

Guys I'm on the look out for a damaged Tuscan for a project car.
I would prefer a 4 Ltr Mk 1 with body damage.
Needs to be in good mechanical order, I know it's a long shot but I thought I'd ask,
I'm trying to avoid the usual salvage suspects.
Please Pm me if you can help.
Thanks
Darren

The project will be cosmetic, hence the need for a mechanically sound example

Have a look on the Cerbera thread as there is a Cerbera that has some fire damage but is sitting at around £2k..!!! might be worth looking at if you are doing a project.

Hi George,
Thanks for the heads up, I'm a current Cerb owner so I've followed that thread.
It specifically a Tuscan I need for the mods I have in mind.

No problem, I knew it didn't fit your criterior but just thought I would flag it up as an option.

I also have a Cerbera but arrived there via a Tuscan which I really enjoyed for 2.5 years, good luck with your search,I'll keep an eye out for a Tuscan for you.

Donor car sourced!
Thank you sir for contacting me and your very accurate and honest description of the car ( I won't name you but you know who you are)
I've sourced a low mileage 2001 4Ltr with relatively light fibre glass damage.
It seems insurance companies are just not willing to repair Tivs.
My plans are to remove the body and refurb the chassis and then off to Plastic man for the sagaris body conversion.
If all goes well this will happen Feb time.
I will post pics for those that are interested at various stages, it'll be under a different heading so keep an eye out.
Thanks to those that contacted me whilst I was searching.
