Now do not get carried away and have the timing belt break on you.........
Given the likely history of these, I guess the body gave way well before the engine.

Not going to push my luck with it Peter.
The body is fairly shot, especially from the B pillars back, but the front wings, lower panel, bonnet and inner wings and suspension mounts are as solid (?) as when it left the factory with only minimal surface rust in a few places.
If you wind up the windows, the door tops actually come up with them and the bottoms of the B pollars are absent.
The roof is gone around the partially open sunroof and the boot is pretty non-existant.
The bootlid is still very good though, as is the enormous and disproportionate boot spoiler.
The seats are firm and supportive but the stitching has of course broken althoughunlike the vinyl seats in the spider, the fabric remained intact while the thread has disintegrated.
Overall, I got excellent value for money and now I need someone who wants to swap a pair of spider wings for my unwanted coupe items.
I suppose that if it were a rare or valuable car, it would be salvagable but as we're aall too aware, the Betas aren't in that league (yet)
