The point is Idrees is i never said it was HPI Clear, due to the fact i never checked myself! Its a solid, relatively clean shell that only required minor paintwork. £400 is less than going rate for a shell, especially a 99Reg, and the fact it had wind deflectors, ABS Removal kit,RSR Springs, New rear brake/lines/pads/caliper setup, a pretty much full interior, and the rest of the gear instead of selling i left in the boot for you also. The damage on the latch was from the 5E Engine i had in there, (Ie lifting it in) the floor is flat looking from above and below, and there is a straight line if you look side onto the car showing it hasnt been pushed in before/rammed up the arse. It would be immediately apparent if it had had a whack as it would be all twisted. Yes it was painted with a brush, as was all the arches, underside, crash bar, front inner wings etc to keep rust at bay and the interior i carried on with as its covered by the interior!! If it was a complete car worth a lot of money fair enough i would also be a bit pissed, same as im a bit dissapointed it was at some point a CAT C, but the fact its not really damaged, has a fair chunk of value in it, and i had no idea also. I apologize for the fact it is a CAT C and im a bit gutted tbh.
