Didn't stay too long 'cause the rest of the place is still in use.
Thanks for looking.
 
Wow, a Vauxhall Chevette! My first car was one of these, haven't seen one for years. Great stuff.
 
Now it looks like you came across the favourite pastime of the Welsh apart from Rugby, I think they were going to be Rally cars but got forgotten about
 
Sod the Chevette, that looks like a Mk.2 Escort half hidden by the tarp. If that's a two door thats worth some serious coin.
 
Great find there Infraredd, deffinatly a mk2. Raced may of these in the 90's when I done stock car racing. ;-)
 
This looks like a standard Chevette, did it did have the HS & HSR rally specials.
 
For all the escort lovers does this help? I've had a Chevette & a MK 2 Escort both with small engines :(

The room with the tiles & brown stuff on the floor stunk of piss. Don't think I have to add anything else to that do I?

It's a 4-door so won't be worth nearly as much as a 2-door, but still sought after by those who can't afford a 2-door (if it's not too rotten). Looks like it's an abandoned project with that roll cage dumped in the back :)

The Chevette won't be worth much, which is a shame as they were decent enough little cars, but they didn't have the competition background that makes Escorts so much in demand these days.
 
Yep a mark 2 escort is a lot of money my bud has one ,looks a little rough around the edged and he drives it to work everyday - some random guy came up to him and offered him 6 grand - he turned him down lol,
Great find pal
