Hi just an update, I found rust where the jack was I will try puting some pics up of the car if I can work out how to do it :( and I found all the parts of the car I think, it was stripped as the king pin bearing was gone, so I'm hoping with new bearings it should all just go back together Easley

Had to send it to my girlfriend by SMS and get her to email it to me as it reduces the size by email
