Default 1989 2wd saph cossie, maybe breaking

With great regret i have to put up my sierra cosworth. I purchased the car only a few weeks ago from ebay (first mistake), stupidly in the dark where all the rot was hidden and paintwork looked lovely.

Now i have inspected the car properly i have found quite a lot of rot (suprisingly the car still has 5 months mot) and is not worth me wasting money trying to repair it all.

Quick spec,

Stage 3 setup by msd
Full mongoose exhaust
Car will come with standard 2wd wheels (not comps)
Bailey header tank
Bailey breather tank
Bailey power steering tank
OMP strut brace
New plugs
New ford motorsport leads
Kent verniers
Dump valve
Samco's
Group A coil
Cobra bucket seats
Graham Goode boost and oil guages
Genuine carbon fibre door panels
Half roll cage (welded in not bolt)
2wd 4 pots with drilled and grooved disks, new pads
B&G quickshift
Paddle clutch (not much left on it)
4wd bonnet
500 Pace cooler
Kenlowe fans
HID light conversion
Will come with 4x4 turbo but will need a rebuild
Can be seen running on current turbo but is being removed for new project
Engine and box is fine

Not sure of anything else at the minute but will add to post if i can think of it.

Will add pics when i figure out how to

Any question 07563236357 Dave

Hi there the rot consists of passenger inner wing as pictured, hole in driver footwell, hole in pssenger footwell, sills arent bad but will require attention sooner rather than later, the boot has a bit of rot around the rubber app 5 inches in length, driver rear door has rust around the window rubber, prob not as bad as i make it out to be but rather be honest, looking for around 3k or will break

If you wanna buy a nice one you have to spend money unfortunatley no such thing as a cheap cossie, such a shame that you got stitched up.

Oh yeah mines for sale lol.
