Basically it's a solid car (aren't all 900s though?), but the entire exhaust is rotten including the downpipe. I can weld but it's paper thin in several critical places. The rear suspension is sagging onto the bump stops too, the self-levelling shenanigans at fault. But the biggest reason is that it will provide a windscreen, headlining and some other parts for my 760.

This is my dad's 765. He's no longer with us so it has massive sentimental value. This 960 is going to help get it sorted.

Have a friend who might be interested in the headlights & beam angle adjustment switch.
Hi, I do have the code and it's in good working order, finding the local stations easily etc. And both headlights are in perfect condition, and the switch works. I've already removed the lights, the other stuff should be easy enough. What would you expect would be the cheapest way to post things to Australia though? It should be around 10-12kg all packaged up but I'll not be wanting crazy money for the parts.

Oh and the paint code is 412-22 "verdigris" or "tropic green", in case anyone's interested in panels.
I should say, the interior is in really lovely shape, and I'd let it go cheaply to anyone who could collect it. Otherwise I'd have to make a couple of computer chairs!

Hi, the load cover is cosmetically fine but doesn't retract. It works fine for hiding your valuables though, so if you can be bothered to reel it in by hand it might still be worth having. I'd only want £10 for it, with all fittings naturally.
