That's a shame, it'll seem cheap when something has to come over from Oz :(

As Dave said the lights and front grille are worth having. I could use the headlights.

Are the front wings filler as well, they look better than mine. Minty might want doors for his other project, and they may be better than mine as well.
Craig with the CH would probably use the doors, and he was after bulkhead panels as well at one time.

Already pm,d Barry regarding front nearside stub axle,it a shame its up the other end of the country matt,quite a few other bits are required,been here before when i broke 2 chargers up,nether stripped them properly and regretted it,to think of all the bits that went to the srappy :roll:

i went down to the scrappy early this morning to get a full day to completely strip the pink charger, however since I'd been there last week the scrappy has had loads of phone calls about the car from people trying to buy it to put it back on the road because they have seen it on a forum! So he now thinks he is sitting on a gold mine and wouldn't let me strip it for an agreed price, instead he wants to price every part removed individually for big bucks :evil:

What a greedy Bugger! He'll make Bananarama! all at this rate and the whole car will be scrapped! :roll:

I was speaking to one of the guys who works there for him and he has said that the car will stay there for a couple of months before its sent to the crusher and if i go back in 4 or 5 weeks i might get the bits for a good price as i don't expect anyone who has phoned him will be interested in traveling 100's of miles for wings and doors that are full of braze and filler!!
