Default Breaking Amazon 2 door saloon

I have a 1968/9 2 door saloon to break. Badged as a 122S but fitted with B18 single carb (Stromberg) engine.
A good looking car with straight panels and very good doors, boot, bonnet. Excellent chrome body strips and window surrounds.
Unfortunately has serious underside corrosion at rear of car on chassis and inside the rear arches. Looks a mammoth task of welding.
So, sadly, breaking for spares.

The gearbox, axle, wheels are spoken for, but nearly everything else is there.
Front wings are the only poor body items, otherwise fair, good or very good parts available.
Please send PM or tel 07901 584098. Thanks, Mick

Hello Kassie,
Let me check that the heater fan works ok. The battery and fuse box were already gone when I got the car.
Will get back to to you asap.
Thanks,
Mick

Got your PM and have just tried sending PM again and hopefully it will get through. Let me know if it doesn't.

Basically I'm interested in a decent steering wheel and windscreen if you have them.

Dave

PS - I'm the guy who bought the bumpers off you last year

Carpets are in there, but pulled back by previous owner when inspecting the rot situation!
I only bought this for the wheels with the winter tyres in order to save my lloys when the local council start spreading that stupid nasty grit.
I'll take a look tomorrow at the carpets true condition and let you know.
Thanks, Mick

I took a look at the car carpets. Not brilliant I'm afraid. Free to collect if of any use.
PM sent to RobWizard.

The rest of the interior is there. Good door cards, front seats need some stitching, rear seat looks quite good. Dash top has cracks, taped over as usual. Headlining all there. Front parcel shelf, rear window shelf, seat belts (lever latch type between the seats).
