Shame you didn't keep the windscreen - rare as rocking horse sh!t and dear as poison...
But I guess it was knackered...

The windscreen was already broken when we got it. there was pretty much nothing left worth salvaging.

Really there was nothing left, all the parts have been stripped for our three mighty boys, or sold. And every panel was either badly damaged and/ or riddled with rust

so the bonnet only looks ok? but buggered? wouldn't mind the tailgate even if buggered I want to make new one for mine and could cut it up for pattern.

Underneath the white crap on the bonnet was all rust. And the the back end had either been run into or backed into something, and the tailgate and back quarter were all dented in

could be worth while saving the door mirrors, door handles (have had a couple of these break) and the front and rear window seals.

As you can see from the Pictures all have already been taken off. Bar the front seal which was dry and cracked.
As I have said, there was barely a thing left to salvage
