No welding or cutting has been done on the bodyshell except for driver seat mounting, front suspension top-mount reinforcement and roll cage base mounts, as the shell is in very good condition. The car has just one location where there is some light rust damage, this is around the top and front of the left rear wheel arch from earlier accident repair. This rust has been fully contained back in 2008 and is hidden behind the plastic arch covers and the rear door and not a load carrier part hence never addressed with a body repair.

Car will be for sale for a limited time only, please contact me for any inquiry or viewing request on this excellent car.
