I havent had a good look yet but floors look good and solid, needs a little welding in the boot, subframes are good, engine is good runs fine, no brakes!
Can't see me just using it as it is most prob replace the wings and make good of what's there! There is a few dents all over but I'll knock them out and paint it island blue.
Not sure about if its had an engine change??

If you start messing it will end in tears lol. Seriously do the minimum to get back on the road otherwise it will empty your bank account. Good luck.
