[Mk2] [Turbo] What to do with my shell

Post by SW20Paul »

I'm stripping my car down and the engine's coming out on thursday just wondering if its really worth saving the shell,With the price of scrap now I could propably get just the same if not more if I just cut it up and weigh it in :-k

I could just cut the rear off to get the engine out or If I want to save the shell I need to hire a hoist and mess around jacking the car up.

Not sure what a bare shell is worth if anything should I just cut it up ?

You could get about £300 quid for it but last year i was looking for a bare shell!!!
Any one wanting to build a really good project could go for something like this maybe someone in the MR2 Challenge :)

Too late :whistle:

I suppose you could build a new light weight MR2 with no boot :-s
