Without a doubt it could. I`m only going to take the parts I need then make a decision on whether to do something with it. No parts are for sale though. Thing is they are not hard cars to come by. There are always a couple for sale .

I want a 1972/3 FE VX4/90, now that's a rare beast and worth only a few grand at best

Very pleased to see this one saved

Would you sell the remains of the car after you had all the parts you need off it?

DOUGIE68 Feb 11th, 2018 20:31

I don't actually need that much from it, I`ll be starting my other one shortly but want to use as much new stuff as poss and the old one as spares back-up for rare bits
