    Don't feel bad about cutting it up! Once they are that rusty and the original chassis is gone there is little point proceeding. If people got upset about that one geing cut up then they'd be really upset with me! I've cut up some cars much more valuable than that one, inlcuding LH SLR5000, HK GTS x 2, HG GTS350 to name a few. Some cars are just not destined to be saved - the good ones need bits to fix them and the rusty ones have to be sacrificed for their bits.

    None, but they are just worthless junk anyway! Most of those salvageable for parts rusted away over 10 years before their GMH counterparts!

    I'm about to cut up a VK executive sedan, factory L31 M21 3.08 LSD. Except for the fact it looks like a Commodore you'd swear it was an XA-XC it is that rusty. Rust holes you'd stck your head through.

Next time you are after info do the research yourself instead of asking everyone else on here to do it for you. Use the search function.Good luck with it.
    It's all good bud, I looked up the top at the start of thread and to me it looks like big fella had a go at figuring it out. Im glad I only had to sort out a HZ the HJ looks like a hard one.
