FRP Blues

Went to see another FRP this weekend that was in such a sorry state - Bad cat D repair following a front end shunt and they left outside to decay for 3 years, came home with a desperate desire to buy it and bring it back to life, but reality kicks in that at the price he is asking just not worth it.

Wants £2995 but need new front slam panel, chassis leg, wing, bumper, headlights, full respray, wheels, rubbers etc etc and at the end of the day is still a Cat D

Hopefully it isnt another FRP to bite the dust

Which number was it Simon? If it's been left for a little while i would imagine the rear wings will be rotting well . Seems a lot when straight but tatty FRP's go for not much more.

it was either 206 or 216 cant remember and yes rear arches were going it is currently on the trader but I think the photos were taken 3 years ago!! as it doesnt look like that now

sounds like an even bigger money pit than the rest of them already are..lol

Such a shame but someone needs to rescue it before it ends up in bits on ebay

It's number 216 if it is this one http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... ?logcode=p

Yup, that's the one but the photos look much better than the real thing !!
