got the donor car home !

removed the dash yesterday and the trims & seals that i need all the window regulators are better than mine so they can come out, the car is in a very poor state having been stood in the grounds of a scottish castle since 1977

the front wings are poor but it does have an alloy sump (jan)
the carpet is u/s as water has got in via the aerial hole on the front scuttle
