If you've got a Hawk then it's got a spare pair of driveshafts and CV joints on it that have to be worth saving?

It's still got the offside engine mount and they aren't cheap so if it's in good condition and you run a twin cam? Gear linkage looks like it's still there? Probably the handbrake linkage/lever too? New builds still need some of those bits I think?

Can't work out if the bonnet is a Volumex one or not, there's a bulge on it but it mightn't be in the right place? And it's rusty.

Five alloys and they look like they hold air, rear bumper in good nick should sell easily? Right header tank for a Gp4? Might clean up if not cracked/split?

Old shafts and old cv's? Fair few people have had them break so why refurb and fit them when you can get new, stronger stuff for little more money.
Dont think Gerry uses the linkage parts, nothing carries over now as many Hawk owners buy shifter parts from Listerbell. Only thing worth having from a beta is a glove box lock, assuming its the right one and a key is available.
