took my 80 out for a drive today and in a radical turn of events including my mate deciding not to tell me about the branch leaning over the track on his side that I couldn't seen, it came through just below the headlights and took out an air conditioning line, power steering ling cam off the reservoir, the bottom of the plastic cover over the timing belt and also the indicator below the headlight
Also the radiator might have been pinched but I will investigate that better tomorrow

Yup not ideal but shit happens

Anyway I need to find somewhere that can fix the metal air conditioning line and recharge the system if anyone knows of someone that can do it and is resonably priced that would be great also if you can help with any of the other parts I need please let me know

Thanks Oliver

after looking at it this morning im going to need a new timing belt cover, air conditioning line that goes from under the headlight and has a joiner along the guard behind the battery and a new indicator.

Am still inspecting damage so could need more but radiator doesn't seem to be leaking
