it was at the time but now it needs a wheel arch on one side, lower doors have very minor surface rust, bonnet was always iffy so really wants a full repaint .
interior is horrible due to the lack of sound deadening and heating and the wiring is old and been cut more times than i can count.

was easier to start again really
