Russ - That shell is not a body shell, was a car at some point
Still nice though. Minimal rust it looks like

It looks unused to me

The trans hump doesn't look like it had pieces on it to you?

Hi,

Looks like a new shell to me I must admit, the hinges dont look like they have never had a door on them, unless it was dipped after use and those BL shell carrier always had to go back as had a surcharge on them.

Silverstone only 30 miles up the too.

Cheers John

I agree with Don, unless the shell had a console and hardware on it for an extended period of time. Wonder what all the flakey stuff is on the RH floor.

That's a new shell,
and it looks like they have been busy with removing the sound deadening material from the floors and transmission tunnel,
hence the flaky stuff in the picture

Don't the floors usually have a big round hole in them?

The off side still has the sounddeading stuff over the hole. It's a late body shell

If that shell had a solid roof and not a sunroof like my own i would have been interested!
