Default s1 shell, how much???

I know this isnt the right section but hey ho lol.
I have a s1 rst shell in bayside blue and want to know what it would be worth? comes with bodykit loom bumpers, sound proofing.
Has been fully wax oilyed, painted underneath etc etc
Loads of new panels aswell.

Abandoned project basically as the ex missis has fucked up big time pmsl, so has all been passed on to me.
proberbly will ebay it, but just wondered what you think it could be worth, obviosly its got no rust.

cheers all

pmsl @ everyone saying £500 to get a cheap deal

Benn when i broke my S1 shell I sold my tatty ( like most of them are nowadays ) rolling bare shell, absolutely no interior, bumpers, bodykit, with steel rims for £150. I could have got much more but sold it to the first buyer (i had 13 enquires after )

That was 5 years ago (when Series 1's were cool )

I'd say let ebay do its thang!

Good luck bigboy
pmsl why did she leave you, is it cos your cock was too big for her ass, like mine was

Worth more with all old paper work and history with that shell, someone using a rotten s1 and swapping everything onto that shell could make a very nice car on a budget.

That Red S1 look alike and that shell = nice motor!!

It looks better up close too, Benn has done a great deal on this car and it does show.

It's a shame that things have gone this way but like I said least you can move on with your life and carry on the way you want it to go!!!

Cost of repainting it white would be a damn sight cheaper than repairing a rusted infected shell to this condition, plus you will STILL have to paint it

This is a rare oportunity this, and will no doubt be snapped up once it goes for sale. I would tear his arm off for it if I had my Garage built, but refuse to buy it and leave out in the open and ruin a good job.

is it a genuine series 1 shell thats been repainted blue.

if you get some new pics (inside outside underneath, everything, incl history) and advertise it well on ebay, if its as good as it seems i can see it fetching 1k+ easily.

wish i had a garage, as this would be a perfect project for me, fancy selling the saff and building an rst
