massivewangers Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Isn't it just going to be worth bugger all though? Isn't scrap still quite low? Just see if you can borrow a welder and try and fix the thing. Won't cost much, and try not to buy new bits for it, just work with what you've got for now and fix the shell up a bit til you have a bit more money. Seems silly to chuck it away if you can keep it, and for the odd-tenner or so here and there on a few materials, get the rust fixed up and then all your parts can go on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
