It's been a few years since I've had a project/toy to play around with, so yesterday I finally got my hands on something to tinker with. It's going to be a bit of a learning curve, as I've not had much experience of tackling a rebuild, playing with spanners, welding etc, which are all things I'd love to learn.
Anyway, I'd noticed this sitting in someones garden after someone on here tipped me off about it. I'd knocked a few times but never got an answer, until the other day when I tried again, and finally got hold of someone. To cut a long story short, a deal was done and I took the car home with me. According to the DVLA it's been off the road since 2009, sitting on some hardstanding, and is actually quite solid. The only major issue I can find is it appears to have had a new rear quarter at some point, and rust has started on the seam in the boot shut, although this only looks to be surface at the moment, and tiny hole in boot floor. Everywhere else appears to be solid, battery tray is ok, arches are good.
I'm still deciding at the moment as to what I'm going to do with it, although an engine swap is definitely on the cards, I dont think the 1800 diesel thats in there at the min is going to feature in the cars future.

Anyway, a few pics I took earlier, before I had a go at cleaning it, just to see how it would come up.





















And finally, can anyone tell me what fuses/relays I need to be able to get it hopefully running, as someone has nicked all the fuses and relays!
