Unfortunately it was. Completely rotten, better it helps keep some others alive. It was great whilst it lasted.

I have alot of interior metal bits and pieces some are as they were when removed from the car, i also have some which clean with fresh new paint and they look very good.
i will be keeping the seats and carpet for the time being with interior panels, however as soon as i put in the roll cage in my 1.6 shell these will all become available
complete front struts available, spare M16 calipers which worked when on the car some years ago.
1.6 servo and master cylinder
spare steering wheel etc etc
too many parts to remember, i will make a list and take photos when i have a bit more spare time

Can't really judge from the one pic though I suppose...

I still have many parts left which i am willing to let go if people are interested, contact me for info.
spare pair of front struts off 2.0
drum brake fittings for a 1.6gl & 2.0gl, none of this will be required so let me know
spare radiator taken off 1.6gl
complete 1.6gl brake servo
steering wheel
interior panels plastic, cards and metal post trims, some of which are repainted
dashboard in good condition
spare m16 calipers x2 they did work, although probably need a good clean and freshen up
spare front hubs x1
might be tempted to sell bilstein front struts complete taken off 280 brooklands which covered approx 60k miles and done 2k miles on 2.0gl. Sensible offers only as i really want to keep them unless i can get some GAZ gold coilovers to replace them with
brand new in bag Mountney steering wheel approx 12"
1.6 starter motor
pm for details or if you need anything else

Hi mate do you have the second chamber of the exhaust ? Bit of an odd one if so is it in a good nick ? And do you know if it's the same as the mk 3 2.0 ?

Very interested if it is :)

Cheers
