Default Black V8 Scrapped in Doncaster

Anyone requiring a few parts for their ZT V8; I happened upon on a black V8 sat on a rack at DMS in Doncaster. Looked quite complete with engine apart from wheels.

Address is: Askern Rd, Toll Bar, Doncaster, DN5 0QY - 01302 874 143.

Not connected with DMS in any way or meaning to advertise but any help getting spares for these beasts can be difficult and expensive.

Just out of interest what had happened for it to be there? I am suprised that Tim hasn't asked for the VIN number lol.
