Again, I am I am I AM!!!!

Your right, its good enough to serve as a parts donor for my car.....

Again, do find out how much he's asking.....if he is just using it as a storeroom he may not care bout letting it go......can even get him a less valuable 'storeroom'...!

Yep! it is apparently for sale. The owner has lost interest in the car, hence its just left there. The cars is a whitish-grey shade.It has papers alrite, but there's a tax due of 25000. The car is very much restorable(according to me). If u are interested, i'll ask my guy there to follow it up.( coz it 250km away from my house!!)

Regarding the penant, the workshop guy was not there even on the second day, so i got his phone num. Now am back in cochin. the car is lying near my native place.

Well to be honest I'm considering having it as a parts car rather than restoration project....if I could get it as such I wouldnt need to have anything to do with the tax etc. as I wouldnt be taking it with the papers....I'm not even keen on taking the engine & gearbox with it....just wanna pick up the car as it is.
So yeah do ask your man to follow it up...

Never mind the junked 1000, get started with contacting the guys regarding the Herald and pennant

!!!!

And as I said, I'm not concerned about the taxes as I intend to pick them up for parts...although my mech. suggests it'll be much too expensive transporting them all the way so cheaper to dismantle them there itself after buying them and transport what all parts we want....

Er, Shyam, what exactly do you want to salvage from that Herald, if not the mechanicals? The dash seems complete, but so is yours. What do you need in your car that you dont have?

Yes my dash is complete.....but barely hanging on! So an extra dash (from a similar model) would do!

Plus I have someone who needs a mk1 bonnet......I could do with the rest of the body as it seems in good shape...'would also need things like door handles/locks, steering wheel+column....
