mattp1983 0 Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 yes definately, at worst its worth more than that to break it, and with a little tidying you could double/triple your money selling on or end up with a nice tidy car Link to post Share on other sites
Russ_vr6 12 Posted December 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 the only bad thing is iv not been under it yet, im worried that it might be proper rusty?if its solid anyone want to make me an offer lol Link to post Share on other sites
xyber 1 Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 The bodywork of the car says alot about the overall condition, I wouldn't touch it. £600 for a good condition body and a blown engine maybe, but from what you say it'll cost a few grand to sort the body. Save your money and get a good one mate Link to post Share on other sites
