Almost all gone Thats a lot of work mind
Also the strip down will help others no doubt when they need to see where certain bits go
I reckon as well the fuel tank could be flipped and another fitted on the other side with some creative thinking, doubling the range of d3/4 and making it even better for overland trips
What do you think Dunc, or would it just be easier to get one fabb'd up in ally/steel??FFRR Owner, very nearly became a D3 owner
Test piloted a new D4 XS SDV6.. Gone and being forgotten i hope!!

Well this is nearly the end. Whilst I still have a lot of parts to sell, everything is now off the car and just the chassis left.
I must say Im quite suprised at how little rust there is. there is surface rust, but when I give it a light brush with a wire brush it removes it quite easily..
