Mike , I do get your point of view, After mucho thinking I've decided I want to try and get a new reg on the car, so I've ordered a shed load of new hubs/calipers ect ect from Marlin, means I can get rid of the donor now. I'll end up having taken barely anything from it...
luckily as it was a BRM it's paid for it's self with the red leather interior and other bits I could sell on.
I've got Saturday free and I'm switching all the phones off, so I'm going to start a drilling / rivnuting marathon..
