Looks rust free!! It'll never look like a proper cossie

Seriously though, looks to be a nice clean shell and a great base


PS i've got a set of bumpers and skirts going if you need them?

ill get a pic of it with the bonnet up for the propper cossie look
if you still have bumpers in the new year i may be interested.
got myself a cossie spoiler for it now

and a set of 17's

and i have changed the dash to get rid of speaker holes as this used to be a audio car. so it looked like this for a few days

and my cat liked my new dash
