It is, it's completely rotten. The rear underside is actually better than that in my own one before I started but the front floor is definitely worse. Every corner is hammered off it as you can see. it was used as a field banger for years. Three kids learned to drive in it around their back field. I was only messing about selling it. It'll be broken for parts to keep for my one.

I think you need to clean your rose-tinted glasses though, trust me, this one is well beyond restoration, even for someone with your skills and resources...

oh, just FYI, it's a mk1 VW Derby LS. :)

Hey Trev how much to ship that to Calif? I hear that RoRo is cheaper. Can you get me a quote and deliver it to the shipping yard? If so I'll give you 3 figures for it thay don't have any of those in the US it could bring big money with the rat look crowd!

So this is the greens answer to taxing vintage enthusiasts, bloody outrage. I bet SIMI had some input on this, as they proposed the scrappage scheme. I suppose the EPA will be policing it. They,ll never get away with this, will they.
