Whats the plan for it? If you donīt want them rear white indicator lenses please send them here, I need them for the next episode of pimp my ride.

bertil we are stripping it then separating the good panels to keep the rest scrap

as for the indicators they have faded well over the 25 years...

easily the worst car we have ever seen for rust
worse than we first thought and that was bad

but it will be put to good use and anything usable for the future has been kept

its a real shame as we have said


front half will be used as a conversion platform for future projects

not wrong about rust, looks like it could have been di sected with a set of garder scissors http://www.cortina-mk1classifieds.com/forum/images/icons/icon12.gif

If the gutter trims were good I hope you saved them. Decent ones are getting tricky to find.

Im more confused than ever!!

So you're saying that internal affairs knew that Jewels was an undercover agent working for a drug cartel all along?

Something like that... It's not hard to be confused when you hang with some of the people on this forum dmually. :) It all gets a bit Pulp Fiction. Worlds collide.

2 + 2 Geffro...? Im not touching that with a 10 foot pole.
