Found this on a Youtube video from 12 years ago or so. Was pretty rotten then so if still there probably completely beyond any redemption at all. Still some cool bits worth scavenging off it or at least there was!

As an ex-RAC car it had international competition papers and a good period history. I helped the then owner in getting its original number plate back with the DVLA. Which enabled the owner to then sell the remains to a Swedish Marina rallyist who was looking for a car to take historic rallying. He has been posting progress on Facebook from time to time.
