So its a non runner, that needs welding? then its worth now where near £750 project or not

.. Mk3 S1 rep cabs were the done thing 3yrs ago but now orginality favours..

Parts wise you'd easy make back a good couple of hundred if all the right bits are in good condition.. but completre youd be lucky to see £500 IMO

I picked up my Cabby with 2 Months MOT, No Tax, solid underneath, good roof ie no leaks, for £300

Put it in for MOT and ll it needed were 2 rear brake hoses.

With yours as it it is i wouldn't expect much more than £400 for it

No , it would be a good base for a project with kit wheels etc, but it may aswell be a rolling shell as it is, have you sold all the bits off seperately?
