Also, looking at the drivers & passenger side door pockets?
When could I come up?

Door pockets might be going onto 381 but I need to check it over first.Current Fleet.

Cheers for the update. I have sent you a PM about a visit.
Will take the wiper mechanism, a 5.5J alloy wheel, windscreen.
Can I take a look at the seats? I only need some fabric to repair some damage on mine

Even ones that are being removed for the first time without issue have evidence of a previous break.
Theory is, that they tend to get damaged during initial fitment, but it's rarely noticed until we come to take them out.Current Fleet.

Thanks to Carfix and BenF the car has been stripped and picked clean of any good stuff.
The car is on its very last journey to the crusher first thing tomorrow morning.
I plan to do the same deal on another maestro I've got my eyes on, possibley even the montego turbo conversion when it's time comes.

And thanks from me, too. Great to meet you both and the tea and (headlining) biscuit are very much appreciated.
The image of Ian continually returning to the stripped out hulk in search of ANYTHING that he might have missed is still making me chuckle. I just hope the scrappy has a decent weigh-in price for rust!

Cheers for checking out the dash. I started my restoration today and I'm sure my dash has deterioated over the past few months, so if you do come across a decent one please bear me in mind.
Cheers,
