Hey, you'll find this under the plastic tray on top of the heater box under the bonnet.





How much for it posted? It's very small and light.

I take it your heater fan worked on all speeds?

Hope the shell gets saved otherwise we are going to end up with more bits than cars

Should do - its a 3 door in good condition.

I'm trying to sell it on, but just no one really buys these as project cars do they

The shell is pretty good, the obvious dent in the front valance (behind the no.plate in the pic ) and theres a few small dents on the drivers side wheel arch and one in the sill just in front of it where i stuck it in a bush - Inappropriately parking i like to call it I cant find rust really, there's a piece starting to bubble on the bottom left corner of the windscreen in the usual place but i cant find any more. all jacking points are there, the valances front (all be it dented) and rear are not rusty at all. The shell also has the bucket seat mounts welded in which are lower than the original mounts so you sit lower in the car, sqaure tubing with spreader plates on each end and triangulation on the seat mounting plates themselves. Also has the turret extensions so if you somehow managed to put s13 top mounts on your original struts you'd instantly have a car 2 inches lower on the front (no more sitting on the bump-stops wooooo!) Also has all 8 harness' eye spreader plates, to fia spec, welded in to correctly position the harness's behind and down either side of the seat, as im sure you all know the harness' go skew-wiff if you use the original seat belt holes.

Bonnets gone, windscreens gone, boot lids gone, but the doors are still there with the rest of the glass, pop out rears as well woooo

Haha, Thomas............

I'll have to think about this. Could do with a few arse-end parts, as I've still a motor to fix, but no insurance news yet.
