Glad no one was injured, sadly the car looks trashed.

Shame but that's a gonner I reckon ....

Get what you can mate - the induction kit looks decent ... let me know if you get it off and look to sell on.

Oh dear. Now I'm injured. Thumped myself in the head with a piece of scaffolding pole I use as a breaker bar. Mrs has nipped out to buy some steri strips.

Careful, cars bite.

Sadly that is well beyond ecconomical repair, even DIY. If there wasn't any inner wing or chassis rail damage it would be repairable but seeing as the engine has moved I wouldn't be suprised if the gearbox is damaged.

She did a great job of saving you from injury.

I knew that was a catch tank mate - no - I was talking about the induction - didn't look standard .... Might take the catch tank off you though if you took it off, ain't got one of them.

Ah, I see what you mean. Didn't realise you could see the piping in the photo.

I have a plan in place now. Car is arriving at mine tomorow morning (hopefully after ther brm has gone or I'll have problems). I need to clear space for it in the garage which will be interesting and hopefully roll it in there to work on in the dry if not warm. Then I'll strip off as much as I can to see tge damage and post some more photos. If its fubared I'll strip the goodies off and think about where to go from there. Either another 180 or maybe something retro if I can afford it. Probably another 180 though.
