ROSSCOSM Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Im more happy to see its not sitting in a scrap yard top man for saving it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayS88 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 oh yes couldnt let it go scrap, its not badly rusted, mainly rear arches, its the wiring more, and its sat for so long, it used to belong to a friend and some kids tried to steal it, when thry hotwired it they blew the main ignition fuse, so my friend just left it sitting. offered it to me for a good priced and i bought it without question and before i was ready to do anything with it.
