Dismantling the car

I've spent the last three days dismantling Hercules. The rust is pretty bad, and both sills and most of the floors are rotten as are the front and rear cross members. The bumpers are now off, and I took an angle grinder to the exhaust which was rusty, very bent and trailing on the ground. All the air suspension parts are intact, and I will attach my neighbour's compressor to the reservoir to see if the car rises up. The airbags are pretty ancient, but they used to hold air, so hopefully they still will.
