New Trophy Owner

Deb · Dec 18, 2010

Finally managed to get myself a 182 after years of wanting one. Never thought i'd be lucky enough to get a Trophy.

Found it on a salvage site that my dad was using for work and pursuaded him to get it.

Its no. 400/500 and needs a bit of work lol.

When i first got it home

What's the low down with the damage? How much did you pay for it?

Welcome : doesn't look too rough! Enjoy once it's mended ;-)

Excellent, hope you fix it and put it back to its former glory ;-)

Have quite a few dealings with salvage companies via work but never get to see anything interesting like a Trophy.

Yeah I was surprised he found it really. Was soooo lucky that no one else bid on it

Not sure what he paid for it - needs a wing, bumper, whee and side skirt

Also needs to go on the jig as the drivers door doesnt shut properly

Cool. I can recommend getting it on the register on here. 400 has been appeared yet!

I have a spare wing, bumper and skirt. In Blue though so would need painting.

How much do you want for them? I take it the 172 and 182 are the same shape at the front?

Matbrown · Dec 19, 2010

Yes, as long as it's a phase 2 172.
Will PM you a price.
