Update, car was stripped of everything I want to take off it for myself/stockpile, last Sunday. The remains will be going to the scrap dealers this weekend.
A few pics of some other bits I found interesting on it...
Quite an early chassis and engine number? How does that compare with yours @vtecmec ?
Nice bodge on one of the power steering lines at the connection to the rack;
(I also found that the power steering cooler was not in the circuit - the lines had been properly plugged, up under the cruise control unit, though I still haven't sussed where they have been looped back instead of going through it )
It appears to have a bit of extra oem sound deadening in the doors the car (compared to my 93 ukdm BB1 // 95 jdm BB4 or Lisa's 92 jdm BB1);
(Might not be oem, but doesn't look particularly after market and the door speakers were original/not upgraded)
Oh yes and more on the rust...

@gordonlear
All the manual conversion stuff is out. Do you still want it?
That's;
If you can let me know please, because otherwise chris1811 may be interested.
Thanks

That's;
- All pedal assemblies
Gear shift linkages/assembly
Clutch master/slave cylinders and lines etc
I have a choice of 2x non-LSD boxes (will need to check the gearbox codes at the weekend, when I will also be able to remove the flywheel)
You're welcome to have the clutch as well if you want (I will take pics so you can see whether there's any meat on it)
Still on the gearbox is the starter motor and reverse light switch that you would also need
All bolts and cable clips/split pins included (even bolts you probably won't need 'cause they'll already be on your car )
If you can let me know please, because otherwise chris1811 may be interested.
Thanks
