for an oval shell.
Anyone got one they won't miss?
The "average"-er the better, since I'm considering some severe cutting.
Most likely won't happen 'til mid year, can't hurt to spread the word tho.
Cheers,
Cam

singing! That would suit me fine. Don't need the rear apron, inner guards or firewall, if anyone else does?

cheers Ben, we should catch up soon.
Not much of a 'pan planned at this stage. Just need a pillar-pillar donor to do the dimensions & see if its do-able.
The free-er the better too, keeping the initial stages out of domestic life is preferable.

somewhere around this.... the salvo's are not playing just yet....

front is rooted, blame Ray "Chuck" Bennett for that.... took off back to europe with the jewell in the crown.....
I got plans for it otherwise, will probably take 20 years, but it is there, is cut to bits and is ready to go....
Barny and I thought it would make a perfect addition to the wedding car fleet. The colour is right, would be able to be made into a trailer for the official mother in law transport

unfortunately I'll definitely be needing A pillars.
I'm also looking for a donor 'pan. As long as it has a spine & rear shock mounts, it will do. Don't care about front, i.d., halves, etc.

go on then, who's got an old 'pan leaning up against an old tin shed?
I think this is the first time I have'nt had one tucked out of site awaiting hard rubbish.
The irony, hey?
