Yea I’ve decided I’m probably just going to remove anything on value off the body that is salvageable, get rid of the body check over the chassis backend that the fire was at and rear axle. If all seems ok then I’ll just wheel the chassis, engine an all into my garage when i’ve cleaned it/sorted...
