Well Done a deal on Kermit as Swisstoe aptly named him, or That Fu!!king Green Thing as my missus calls it. Not sure what name to pick
Anyway I'm no expert but tried to check all things I was told to. It needs a bit of welding on one of the arches in back and there is a small hole in chassis, but that's about it. boot floor solid. Until I get it home of course and find loads more which is usually the case with me.
The Lad has spent a lot of money on this, brand new tarrafirms suspension lift kit loads of other toys which are not my thing really but suppose I could take some of them off, nearly new tyres ect.
Needs an indicator lens and hand brake cable connected. Getting it on Tuesday so will have a good look around it and see what's what. will send pics, and if anything's broke will be asking how to fix

I'm afraid that the only discoverys I've bought are ones that I'd break for parts if they weren't any good for on the road. The most I've spent was 600 quid

First few pics of Kermit, first good look in the day light. first impressions look good to me although Im no expert on these things.
Faults so far, very small oil leak not sure where exactly from yet though.
Needs Indicator and corner piece of front grill, drivers side.
Indicators don't work, hopefully its just a Fuse.
No handbrake he left it off when he put new prop shaft on, but got drum with new cable in boot to fit.
There is a smallish hole in corner of floor in back and a small hole in chassis.
Thts about it until I go over it properly.
Forgot to get pics of inside, will get some tomorrow.

Awesome dogs. You have some welding to do I’m afraid
left hand side of pic you can see a Trapeze shape that’s eaten out at bottom (common spot). I’d bet you the top of chassis under there is also crispy as it’s a water trap.
you’ve got a fairly big section to repair there. Mine was dead in same place.

First job at weekend change all oil and filters, will do Diffs as well . hopefully can get an Indicator by then. Then sort handbrake as and when I get time.
Another pic, not sure if I need these or not, don't even know what they do but Suppose they look good, definitely don't need the CB.
