I have a mini shell to get rid of what is the easist way, it was a project (new front wings, grille, and other parts installed, but may need redoing) but i have given up on it now.

1) cut it up myself and take to local waste disposal yard and then send off the v5 saying scrapped do i need any other paper work.
2) phone a metal salvage yard, would they take a bare shell?

any other suggestions, canont be bothed with ebay as i am not looking for any money for it.

I'm sure one of the serial Mini Collectors one here would take it off your hands - either that or post up on http://www.theminiforum.co.uk/ or http://www.minifinity.com/ and someone will be interested...

it was a complete mini 998 advantage with Webasto Roof, most the pieces are here (including a full set of mini 25 internal seats) my godson bought it about 6 years ago for me to work on it,

I complete stripped the car to a bare shell, and my fault was not completing a section of bodywork before moving on to another sections, so lots of bits have been worked on but not complete. I should of kept car more compelete and then only stripped and worked one section at once. so would still need a bit of work to complete.

And this been my first time welding, I have lost all interest in the car, not worked on the car for about 4 years.

hi mate, if you have the shell still i will take it off your hands and if you have a V5 with it will even give you a little bit of cash.
