            Would be good if you can get it back on the road Andy, too many being broken for parts lately. And don't see many S2's in kingfisher blue

                Thanks for the offer, I will see what is left on the coupe in the yard.

                I need to get it home anyway, check chassis rail etc.

                  I sold my kingfisher S2 coupe back in 2005, just wondering if this is my old one?

                  Mine had black leather Recaro seats and the reg. was N??? HTP.

                  Cheers, Dan.

                      I hope you can save it mate, not too many kingfisher ones about now. Its a tempting car to break for that price, but to see all fixed up would be an admirable acheivement!

                          I am breaking an ABY S2. I still have rear bumper, front wings, bonnet, tailgate, IC and cross member, rad and some other bits. Some are on eBay some not. Let me know if you need anything.

                          Regards

                              I got this home on Friday, and got a chance to look at it today in daylight

                              It does not look good for fixing up, main problems are

                              Roof skin damaged, dented scraped and twisted
                              OSF strut twisted (jammed into the tyre)
                              OSF Wheel camber
                              OS sill bent upwards
                              Floor bent up behind drivers seat
                              OSR quarter smashed in
                              Boot floor damaged, smashed in and seams split
                              NS quarter knocked in
                              OSF chassis leg front damage
                              Wheels dented/tyres torn off

                              Plus bolt on bits

                              Bonnet
                              OSF wing
                              OS door
                              A pillar trim is not right, could be prior from a windscreen change, you can fit your finger in though.
                              Headlights
                              Oil cooler shroud
                              Front bumper
                              Rear bumper
                              Aerial
                              headlight trims

                              And its leaking somewhere

                              On the plus side, jumped it and she fired straight up, ran up to temperature, fan kicked in, oil pressure good hot and cold, sounds lovely and smooth

                              Also selects gear and drives forward and back!

                              Some pictures





















                              It looks like it was a really nice car prior to the accident, though it has had a rear panel replaced before.

                                Sounds like it's a bit much too fix, pity, if the battery box is going spare put my name on it please mate, I'm guessing your going to want it for your own 3B though.

                                Edit- Just had a better look at the pic's, I'd say it's shagged, that roof skin alone is a sign that the chassis is twisted.
