I get that.

It was only going to be scrapped anyway. I think it is a good recycle of something at the end of its life.

van backs (try bedford - i like the look of them) make great tool cabinets or sandblasting booths (one arm through each rear door)

Nice idea for a scrapper!

Is that Max from Eastenders in the photo ;)

No way would I do that again ... I cut a 2-door scrapper in half myself (the front end was BADLY twisted after an accident) ... as I finished the cut I could almost feel every single previous owner's heart break (my own included), it was one of the most awful days of my life, there is no way I will ever cut a car in half again.

On the plus side however the back half of the car will ride again as I'm turning it into a trailer ... I have two doors welded across the front to keep the lines going all the way round (looks a treat), I just need to weld on an a-frame to the front to take the tow-hitch, connect up the brakes and fit a towbar to the running minor and I will have a trailer that matches my car
