After bursting the fuel tank yesterday I have decided to break the prelude. All parts will be available so let me know what you need.

Car is completely standard and a dark metallic blue in colour.115k miles gearbox and engine run smooth

Based near Kettering northants collection welcome or can post most parts.

I will pop out and get some photos when it's light.

It's has other problems also it doesn't seem like fuel tanks are easy to come by. Rusty rear inner arches. Exhaust manifold and exhaust need doing along with a few other odds and sods.
I need to buy something else asap.

Need to keep car rolling so can't do the rear hubs. Also it's s 4ws model.

I paid around £60 to have my tank re skinned. Seems a shame to break for less than the price of a full tank of petrol.
