thanks all, as for pic's ill do my best but it not much to look at the moment embarrassment , the previous owner stripped it all down paint as well i think and then got his daughter to spray it with a gray colour with a hint of cream emulsion, but the shell is pretty solid with only been to small bits of rust, one on the rear drivers side sill and the other on the rear valance

but he did give me lots of spares including 2 doors solid,all glass front,rear and sides, 2 front wings, an engine, wiring loom, a dash , 2sets of bumpers, thats all i can think off, its gonna be like one big jigsaw puzzle trying to put it all back together tho!!! big grin

thats all the last owner said there was, now ive a little look and found the battery tray will need replacing and found some rust on the under side of the bonnet at the front passenger side corner, the floor is solid as is the boot floor, but i wont know if thats all of it untill i strip it down, so fingers crossed ah!!!
