The number plate may be worth a couple of quid to the right person when you come to strip it
Damn you Dave you beat me too it. |

Nice - similar to mine. It does seem almost criminal to break them - I bought mine from a couple who'd been using it as a daily driver and loved it. Felt terrible when they asked why I wanted it
I'm definitely going with the CVH to get the car on the road with and who knows from then! |

Bargain.
It is a real shame to donor an almost classic Ford but needs must & all that. The guy who sold me number 2 donor thought I was going to put it back on the road. He was devestated when my sadistic eldest son, sent him pictures of the car. Cut into about 8 pieces & piled up in my drive ready to load on the Tranny.

i've been wondering - should I really rip an almost perfect car to bits (considering its age), or should I restore it and then sell it as a classic in 10 years time? I've been looking for a donor for a good while, and they've all been much more expensive and in worse condition than this one - so I know how good a bargain I've managed to pick up. never considered the reg plate as a spare! Cheers guys! One guy has already bought the front seats, and a few others are interested in doorcards, wings etc... Do doors, bonnets and boots sell well if they're in good nick? Thanks for all the feedback
