Seems a good price that mate. I paid £900 for mine and thats got no drivers or passenger floor, needs sills and rear arches, although the front inner & outer wings are good.
Get some piccies up

Darran @ Escort Tec has an aussie mk2 van import up for sale at the mo if your interested. It does'nt need any welding at all by the looks of it although it does need a paint job, think its up for about £2.9k
