Picked up my second SS today. A rather tatty Mk3 but at least this one came with a V5 Essentially, it's going to be a donor car for the first one although, at the moment, I'm not sure what I'm going to have off it. The doors are probably in better condition and have the gel coat to the inside not the CSM finish that is on the first one but strangely don't have an indentation for the handle on the outside. I'll post a quick message in Buy & Sell but if anyone else is looking for some parts, just let me know and I'll get back to you if what you need is available. I may even let the windscreen go if someone is prepared to offer an outrageous ammount of money The body will probably be available for a song but I should let you know that, at some stage in the past, someone has sprayed it with a metallic green and then applied a lacquer which has reacted badly with the paint. The finish now looks like a window on a very frosty morning. It would take a lot of work to get it back to gel coat. I'd upload photos but my attempt at doing so last night ended in abject failure. There are some on photobucket if anyone can help.

Re:-pictures. If you have managed to upload them on to your photo bucket page then all you have to do to get them on here. Is right click over the third line under the picture you are trying to use (i believe it is the image code) then clink copy, switch over to this site and paste it in to your thread.

I dont suppose you have a spare decent windscreen? where did you find the second ss, and if its not too cheeky how much did it cost you?

Chris. it was fairly local to me, near Edinburgh (and not very much). I've not decided if I want to sell the screen yet and probably wont 'till I finish getting the first one on the road. Knowing my luck, I'd sell a screen and then put something through the other one within a week

Like the cars! If your selling the bonnet off the green one please let me know. It's a lot better looking than the one on mine. Mine seems to be mostly large hump, and is about twice the size of the one on your red SS.

mell0rman, bonnet is available if you want to offer me some beer tokens. Bottom o/s corner is cracked (as can be seen in pic) and hinge hole on n/s is bust (hence the reason it's sitting high). Aside from that, not much wrong with it other than the defective lacquer coat.
