Default 3door cosworth project sell or build

Hi all
i have owned a 3door cosworth project for about 10 year and have recently been debating whether to sell it
its a complete bear shell but with all the parts to build a very good one.
my question is what parts are still available either genuine or not like the brake pipes that have probably got lost over the years
what i dont want to do is get stuck in and find a load of small parts that are no longer available
thanks

There a loads of bits available but you need to be wary of the Cosworth Tax on the rarer bits. Things like brake lines are simple to make yourself but something like a non cracked dash might cost a bit.

you can get the green coated pipe on ebay, remember its steel so you will need a decent flarer

you'd be better off putting it together and getting it sorted. It will be worth more and have more interest in one piece.
