Fix it
It's hit the low point of its value cycle. As they get parted out this will become worth more.

The pictures, as promised!
 She was a little grubby! All clean now though  I still haven't decided what to do with her. But she is home now, i will have a bit of a fiddle, and worst case scenario I will sell a few bits to get my money back and wreck her. But i'd like to have a V8....

Too much effort IMO to fix all the faults.
I'd wreck it.

That's what I was gonna say, it doesn't look too bad actually. What's the interior like? Still, it's important to consider that it will be at least 10 years before the n-series start to increase in value, like the zk Fairlanes are now.

Put up pics of it clean.
I'd see if you can get the motor and box working ok, then you can sell a 5.0 conversion and wreck the car. Lots of good bits that other E-Series don't have, chrome bits, panels, the front end, lights, interior bits etc. |
