nothing about just hitting it whilst it was doing its job of being a lampost

So its cost you the best part of a grand to get it back? surely it would have been cheaper to just leave it at the compound and buy a new shell and engine that didnt need all the work...

im not rebuilding it now mate as all the inner arch were the engine mount is thats all twisted and bent, so il be stripping it and transfering all the parts that i can salvage on to a new shell, maybe changing the engine too, just unsure wat to got for at the moment im tepted to go for a 16xe back to original gsi spec, just trying to find a good gsi shell to start off with.
