Well it was rotten to the core at the front ,back and floor .This was unfortunate as i liked this car and would have kept it but it was not to be :(

Yeah it was pretty bad ,its asame as the guy who had it put alot of effort into getting it to that stage but it looks like it had a front ender at some point and had been fixed .If you look in the pics the bottom part of the crossmember were the raidiator sits completely fell off as it was that rotten .
Ive still kept my 5 door as this is very clean for its age ,fair enough the sills are gone ,but hey its an old car .I will put some pics of that in my diary as its now wearing the GTE bumpers ,wich handily are the same colour .
