Maybe so...ime currently bidding on another which if i win ile then decide wether to keep or strip this grey 1 as i have a feeling it may b rotten will no more later today wen i check underneath...currently the bad bits i no off are rust on the leading edge of the roof ,rust on the bonnet and also the b pillars are cracking...also i think the rear has had a shunt at some point as the osr light doesnt sit right and is really bugging me...
