right the car is in my name as it stands.

originally it was purchased as an accident damage car from the canterbury area from a lad from rsockent for parts to one my dad was doing for a customer,

but i convinced him that apart from the damage to the front passenger side as always it must of had a resto before and is in very good shape shell wise but as bits were removed a lot of it was a bodge.

as such the parts needed to finished the customers car were taken and dad as he informed me last night when i asked said he just left it there til now for when i in his own words (stop pissing about with more modern rubbish and frst and get in to a real resto)

good job i love s1's and have a 50000 mile mint interior (out of cliff s1's car)stored away as this is one of the main bits missing

the car as it stands at the moment isnt much to take pics of it is just sat with no front wings or bonnet and stripped to a rolling shell with the engine still the only hard bit at the moment is that in the crash it pushed the n/s whell back in to the base of the footwell and bulkhead and this is not a part ford or pattern (not that i want that) that i can find

so looks like it mine properly now so will try and get some pics when i can get to it and then the hunt will restart also apperars to have been to both power engineering and field moteor sport at some point in its life

hope to find more about its life as being crashed has patchy history not recorded though which is nice

Hope someone can help thanks alex
