Good! your getting the hang of it now. I haven't been to a motorsport event for years, not since I drag raced my dads car in 2001. I would rather work on one of my cars than watch other people have fun in theirs anyday!
Keep your eye on the prize!

There was a120Y wrecking in the week before lasts buy, sell and exchange. (I dunno if it was in last weeks one) Somw kid out at woodend had it. It was mat black, and was a wee bit scruffy, but with the bits off your one and a bit of enthusiasm, it was saveable. Just a thought.

From what I saw of it , it wasn't too bad. It may still have live plates too. The front struts are gone, as is the sway bar (hehe). I think it's tinted out as well. He reckoned that they bricked the motor but it ran out of gas . It had bolt on flares, but they may have gone. If you can get your wreck back, plus as many sheckles as the parasite J#W insurance company will part with, then It should be saveable. From memory It has had a minor frontal, but not as bad as yours!!
Nothing is beyond repair. It all comes down to the desire , focus and persevereance of the guy doing the job.

The guy with that car seemed to me like a cocky little sh1t. Offer him buggar all for it. He told me that he had already made more in parts than he wanted for the whole thing, so talk him down. you will need some help to get it (no wheels/not rolling) and somewhere to stick it. When will you hear about your car?
good luck.
