I've been doing a lot of thinking about what to do with the 2.2 I rebuilt the front end on and then discovered had chassis damage.

I'm not very good at deciding to break cars. If I was then the 2.2 would have been dispatched long ago as that's what I bought it for.

So what I'm planning on doing is keeping it largely in one bit until I can find a suitable project car to swap all the bits over as it's a tidy car. If I was sensible I'd be looking for a 2.2 as there are plenty about. But ambition dictates I must look for a 3.0 Sport :)

Just recently the £2k kit car sailed through my fingers. Gutted about that one...

These guys are breaking one but say the chassis is bent. A shame as I'm perfectly happy to take a chassis picked to the bone as long as the wiring harness is in one bit and it's solid.

I've made some enquiries about this one. But it's not a Sport and I'm not sure I'm happy with it having been on the ground.

So if anyone sees a stripped 3.0 Sport or for that matter a more complete write-off, please let me know! It doesn't need to have an engine as there are plenty about.

I might consider a non-Sport but I just figure if I'm going to all that effort it probably should be a Sport.

Oh, did I say ideally Topaz Blue as that's what colour my panels are? I'd have them resprayed for Estoril Blue though :)
