Default poorly xr3i

bought this 2 days after i bought a mk2 fiesta so the drive is now filling up
its a genuine 86 car on a late reg for E plate (legit id) all 86 date stamps (maybe import but im looking into that)
windy windows !!
merc grey
1/2 leather interior (looks like tennis cabbie but isnt, retrimmed i think)
rs turbo wheels
rs turbo bodykit
very solid is some places and not in others
frontal damage so needs a bonnet, lamps, bumper and rad (any cheap locally?????)
if i can find the right parts in the right colour ill be repairing but if not ill be stripping it
looks a tidy thing tho huh

Don't break it!! Looks too clean!

Is it solid apart from the damage?

i have no intention of driving it sadly, i like playing about tho.
pulled it straight and its ready for a bit of welding
to the bumper mounts and the crossmember joint
runs really well too
but either the starter or cables are toast cos it turns over really really slowly
