Hi Keith, you're right; it is all pretty straight (rails and plates etc). I have found some bent drive shafts, but hopefully I can find replacements for those. The only thing that is missing is the front bumper, and I believe those are as hard to find as hens teeth.

It is supposed to be a rust remover, but citric acid or oxalic acid are much faster and cleaner to use. Plenty of videos on youtube demonstrating their use. Wash afterwards with a baking soda solution to neutralise the acid.

Thanks for that Terry, I'll give everything a run through the cleaner first to get rid of the majority of crud and rubbish, then see what I'm left with.
I'll have a closer look at the motor tonight, and post another picture if needs be.
