yeah its probably got leccy windows that don,t work :D
its an estate so if anyone wants the roof i,ll cut it out as it might be long enough to be useful in the locost sense.:)

andy

Something like that..:)

You could use the roof panels for the floor. Recycle ! and nocost

good idea, didn,t think of that, tho would it be strong enough? i don,t intend flooring in the prop shaft area so i imagine there would be enough metal, its cheap like me but as it,ll never be seen then worth thinking about. plus do my bit for the enviroment :D
cheers
andy.
Paul you have a PM

:D wahey i,ve got my donor, just arrived home after driving it back 212 miles, ran great, really pleased with it, its the perfect donor, drives like a dream but bodywork is shot, collected it from a LCB member & had almost half tank of fuel, haynes manual, brand new fire extingsher then on way home picked up a set of alloys with practically brand new tyres,
so car was £150 with tax/test & fuel, manual etc
alloys with new tyres were £10
what a great day i,ve had.
apart from 6 hours on 2 coaches.
still, its been worth it,
i,m well happy.:D :D

cheers
andy

Well done
 

Great news Andy. :)

Personally, I think the 1.8 CVH Sierra estate was a decent car in its day. I found it very comfortable to drive. The CVH engine, if well maintained was a very willing lump. ;)

At least you have the advantage of a decent journey under your belt & now know all is well.

A good stripping session ahead.

Don't forget to slacken the rear hub nuts when you have finished playing with the donor. :D :D

:D ;) yep i,ll make sure they,ll be the first nuts to be undone,
had a look thru all the paperwork that came with the car, its a genuine 90k miles with full stamped service history & had cam belts changed every 20k & it drove really nice so gives confidence about the engine, tho i will be putting a new clutch in whilst its out of the car.
so its seems to be a bargain.
cheers
andy

Dont share the Donna ! Keep the kebab to your self (it was a joke about the roof panel)

:o but in the true locost fashion it is feasible, :D
andy

Donna or roof panel ?
