    very true,
    it's not something josh or I take joy in, I'd love to keep it as an ebay special track beater, or rat beater, but I have two cars, and not enough money for 3!

    besides, the parts will live on in other cars, so good will come from it.

    oh and if anyone needs any rust repair bits, panels, sections etc tell us now so we can cut bits out and what not.

    Someone with lots of money needs to go buy a huge warehouse somewhere so everyone can go put all their Mk1 stuff they don't need anymore. Then people could come and buy the parts from them as they needed them and it would pay for itself somewhat.

    That way it would all be in one place and everyone could benefit.

    Who's got a rich, impressionable (and not very bright) Uncle?
