Well..... I picked it up earlier! It's not too bad tbh, rough around the edges but think I can make it into something good.
Wing is worse than I thought though, it restricts the door opening and pops in when the edge of the door hits it. I'm struggling to find a replacement so my plan is to take the wing off and try to straighten it myself. Any thoughts/ suggestions?
Also, the guy I bought it from was explaining the 4x4 system to me, he told me I can only put it into 4wd when stationary with the wheels forward as its had to have a new gear box in the past due to his staff getting it wrong. Does this sound normal?
Here are some pics of the car including the wing damage. Stickers coming off tomorrow!
