bungy 2 Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 got a van with tow bar and can prob get an A frame ....There is no way that will tow. All you can see is the paint still standing, there will be no steel beneath it. Link to post Share on other sites

CALICO 130 Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 What would be worth getting from a fairly basic model to put on an rs turbo its a 5 door shell so might if your lucky be an injection but i doubt it. Link to post Share on other sites

CALICO 130 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 why not just take them out in situ and get a local scrap company to take the rest away as the door is missing and the windscreen missing or not complete i wouldnt have thought the dash would be worth anything as there only vinyl covered cardboard.
