1.1 Junior

[Obey_R 23]

I'm hopefully going to be getting a 1.1 Junior to break down for parts as I need a B pillar chopping out and this is an easy way.

 

Am I right in thinking things like bonnet, tailgate, doors, windscreen, rear screen etc are the same on base models too (without window tint, I know).

 

Also things like seat subframes are universal, aren't they?

[BERTMAN 40 1 Cars]

Yes too all, the doors wont have the holes in for the GTi trim though... not hard to drill some in however.

[Obey_R 23]

Yeah my GTI has a base model door with trim riveted on already

 

 

Trying to see if it would be worth while me getting it for the bit I need and then breaing the rest of it. I'll see what condition it's on on Sat and setup a for sale thread accordingly.

First dibs on the ribbed tailgate plastic if it's not damaged!

[Obey_R 23]

Can probably sort that out.

 

If it's worth me having (dependant on B-pillar really) then I will deff have it off him and be breaking it.

I'll be scrapping two shells soon near Ipswich, you're welcome to cut the B pillar off one of those if you want.

First dibs on the ribbed tailgate plastic if it's not damaged!

 

 

The tailgate trim is good as long as I can get it off without breaking it!

 

 

 

 

What would everyone say would be good things to pull off and keep/sell on? I've only got access to it for a week before it's scrapped so I'd like to take everything possible. Any ideas?

Oh its a look so it will be proper boggo base spec so theres not alot you can take really...

[Obey_R 23]

I don't expect any of the running gear to be suitable but have just written up a list of things like door/boot seals, seatbelts, washer bottle etc.

[Atari Boy 11]

Lights (inc rear loom), doors, 5 door seat subframes, bonnet, tailgate, wiper motors, windscreen seal.

[Obey_R 23]

It's a 3 door so I'm going to use the subframes myself. Is it easy to remove the windscreen and seal without breaking either? I was going to keep the windscreen as a backup incase my current one goes but been told it's easier to just cut the seal.

Probably easiest to cut it out that way you don't risk breaking the windscreen. It's not too hard to remove with the seal on but as I find out when mine was replaced it's very easy to break the screen.

Check the beam, the one I took off a 1990 XE looked really good. It might of been rebuilt but I doubt it.

 

Apparently the softer torsion bars stops it wearing as badly.
