Did you buy the car and then had the accident that caused all that damage? Pretty unlucky if so:(

I wonder if it'd be more economical to buy a cheap donor car instead and then just swap over what you need

They have been pulled until it's release which should be very soon. It looks stunning and there will be a
coupe and convertable.

Secondhand bumper, bonnet and lights plus paint, I would guess around £1000 to £1200

Well worth doing if you got the car at low cost and if the car is in other wise good condition. The 3litre is very much sort after

Where are you located? That appears to be a US front plate on the car.

At least all the parts look like a bolt on/off job. As long as it's legal to drive you could do a rolling repair as and when the right bits become available secondhand in the right colour locally.
