I have not bothered with a single donor, but I have a number of parts and have managed to source a number of others cheeaply.

Engine £50 from another of my projects
Gearbox £20 ( although I have another that cost £100)
Rear diff, Hubs, Drums £20 of fule as the were free.
Front uprights inc ball joints £45
Front brakes £from stock £10
Column £From Spares stock £10
Wheel £from spares stock £10
Alloys £from Spares stock £50
Clock £from spares stock £5
Servo £from spares stock £5
prop, starter £40

Makes about £265 spent on donor bits, no hassel of a shell to get rid of

Some shrewd work on ebay may see a similar haul for similar money. Your well placed location wise.

TT
