Post subject:	wreck it or sell it?
I obtained this '77 Clubman S, and I'm not sure what to do with it.... I don't need it, don't have the space to keep it, could use some of the parts of it, but don't really want to see it destroyed either. it obviously has it's share of rust problems, but nothing that can't be fixed... My son wants to cut it up and steal part of the body, but he's an unscrupulous and dastardly scavenger who can't be trusted, so I'm looking for suggestions.... I figure it's worth $300-$350 as a whole.... but not sure what to do

I had one very similar and I chopped mine up... literally. Each to their own, but I'd wreck that one.

Thats the exact type of car we look for up here in Sydney for club motorsport hacks & to teach the kids to drive on, if its a runner i'd sell it off complete as someone may want it for that purpose. Doogie

Tthat's a very good point, and thoughtfull too.... but the pans are different from 71/2 to 77/8. The tunnel especially. If you are going to do that to a GT, best get a complete floorpan from a Clubby the same year model (with remote change).

Doogie Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. Ideal Khana car for someone with a bit of work.
