    I promise you it’s not that bad. It looks much worse than it actually is. The chassis was solid. Also, I did the blue paint - I didn’t want to use the red stuff (I’m a city fan) 😂

      What would be the value if fixed up. I can’t imagine it’d be worth the effort tbh.
      Isn’t there more money in younger damaged cars or is this more about views than profit?

    It was running when it was driven into the paint shop in 2019, it was then stripped down and all the welding done, all the panels and parts were put inside and it was trailered to its present location, the doors and bonnet etc... were put on temporary to keep the weather out. I had the head lining re-trimmed, I bought a new fuel tank, which is also inside, I even had the interior valeted before it was put back inside! I know it looks like a real challenge but once you have trailered it to your unit, and emptied it out, it will be easier than you think! I have a brand new set of wheels and tyres in my lock up waiting to be fitted!!!

    Lads, Lads, Lads, There's no doubt in my mind that you would get this looking better than OEM but, I really think it's a Range Rover to far. As you already said, there's no telling how long it would take you to complete the job and that's if you can find all the parts that it may need and what their delivery timeframe is. If matt isn't in a rush then you can do it a wee bit at a time while you do the other builds but, I still think it would take forever to do. I would give this one a miss.
    Can't wait for the next build to start and if it's half as good as the job you did on the M4, it will be another cracking build.
