Breaking Freda/bongo
Posted: Sun Mar 12, 2017 1:13 pm
I have a ford freda/mazda bongo which currently needs the new wheel arches we have bought welded and a new radiator. It runs lovely and we have been quoted £700 for the work it needs. It passed the MOT last year and the only advisories were that it had "sligh" rusting on back wheel arches and that I didn't put the back split seats down.
Last week before the radiator went I booked a flight to Australia and now unfortunately I just cannot afford or have the time to do the work before I leave as well as sell it.
It was originally bought as a little project but now it looks as though I am going to have to scrap it.
Since everything else on the car is working well I was debating about taking off what I can and selling it.
My question really is, is this possible with very little mechanical knowledge?
Or would be be better of just scrapping it? Just seems such a shame to waste a perfectly decent car, especially since the engine is good and all electricals work including leisure battery, cd/dvdplayer, speakers.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
A very confused
