Hopefully it looks worse than it really is.

But that does look fixable. It's still got four wheels - all pointing in roughly the same direction - and the windscreen hasn't even got a crack in it. Couple of wings, a new bonnet and front bumper and it'll be right as rain. I hope.

Horrible to see this. Sad photo. Looks fixable though. Hopefully owner will restore it to its former glory.

Looks repairable to me. Ok - a bit more than T-Cut, but worth it nevertheless.....
Happy weekend, and drive carefully!
Best regards,

Except that parts are all but impossible to get hold of, and usually come at the expense of another car thats been written off! :cry:

Not doing too well with the green Z1s. What a shame! Looks like he has got half a field in the wheel arch :shock:

No the green ones are doing badly :(

This one is in Germany.

There were some Z1 panels on E-bay about a month ago. A boot, front/rear wing and a bumper if I remember correctly.
