Default breaking 69 1800s

My first post here was as a "proud new owner??" as I bought a 69 1800s in the pub after a few drinks. Towed it home, got some advice and in the end decided to strip it. It's LHD, a swedish import.

Parts of the body are still ok and useful for someone doing a lot of weld work - bonnet and boot lids are good, roof and pillars good shape, the floor pans are solid as well. Would sell the whole shell if interested.

Interior OK but it was musty inside.... back seat assembly best, front seats need attention.

Doors are good except for the bottoms - some rust holes. Windows tracks and cranks good - exterior latches jammed but interior door release works fine. Don't want to disassemble doors so you'll have to take it all.

B20 engine was a brand new replacement when it was parked up in 97 but hasn't run

Both front and rear windshields and "d" shaped glass in good nick.

Tach, Speedo, oil/water, fuel gauges are there but writing is in swedish. Clock would be a straight swap.

It also came with a set of 14 inch Mangel chrome wheels - that will need rechroming but are vintage.

Let me know if you're looking for something. Will be keeping some items for spares.
