Do you think they are worth it at the mo it doesnt run or anything as it hasnt been touched since 2002

Are they worth anything now?

Defo going to get it and weigh up all my options

It does need a few things like bumpers as they are goosed and weather strips and a good boot spoiler

Any one know if I can use my spare cossie fuel pump on it?

Cossie pump will be fine, some xr4i had the std cossie 941 fitted from the factory on the k jet, it needs to be a good one though, kjet needs more pressure.

Clean 3 door shells are worth a few hundred. But as said, just get it and resto it
