ok this is a bit of an unusual one, and more than a little bit sad unfortunately. we have been stripping a sedan, and its almost ready to leave us for good. the sad news is, as far as i can tell, this car had absolutely everything off the factory floor. air conditioning, sun roof and two electric mirrors.

like a lot of similarly sad stories, the body was just too far gone for us to save. hence the stripping and moving it on.

i doubt there will be any interest, but you never know. so. if anybody would like to cut up the body for rust repair on their own car they are welcome (be warned there will be a couple of bits missing already). also on offer is the sunroof. if there is genuine interest, we are prepared to cut it out of the roof (or just cut the whole roof off). if somebody can use it, then it's yours for free.

somebody please take it and make me feel a little bit better about it  :'(

ah, well the mirror is both good and bad news i suppose. the car will live on, i promise! it's just the body that is going. the engine, brakes and driveshaft is going straight into another alfetta (rust free  :o -almost). -will post pictures in the next week.

The steering will go into my car, as it's in much better condition than mine.

One front quarter panel is already on my car after the incident at Sandown, the other is in storage for the race car. oh and a couple of the doors will be for the race car.

the gearbox will be in dry storage until we are confident we can be kind to the thing, and make the most of it.

The only thing going apart from the body (which we are going to cut bits and pieces out of for future use) is one rear door, which was too far gone to repair.

Unfortunately i can't save them all
