Is anyone scrapping a mid 90s white Golf

Just a long shot, if anyone knows of a scrapper, paint code LB9A, for panels for my mothers Golf. She's had the thing over a decade and it passed an MOT today without drama and it occured to me how good the thing has been, only trouble it's ever given was dumping its coolant a while ago, mother phones me to say there's a big puddle under the engine and dry expansion tank so I told her to call the scrapman and buy something else, only she can't find anything in white with a sunroof and can I take a look at the water leak, turned out to be the radiator and cheap to replace.

I suppose I should reward the thing, not a car I have any liking for but this example has earned a bit of love. It was vandalised a few years ago and has been the victim of a few hit and runs while parked, deep scratches, both rear doors stoved in and slight damage to front bumper. I can't see me ever getting the time to do the paintwork, but took a look at the damage today and there could be an easy option. the worst of the scratches are on the rear dooors and nearside front door, a couple of deep scratches on the bonnet that wouldn't be too bad to repair, and light scratches on both rear quarters that might just polish out. So if I can pick up 3 doors I think I could make the car nice again in a day, or at least as nice as it ever was, a bonnet and bumper would be the icing on the cake and I'd possibly find time to give it a blast of waxoyl, and maybe oil and a cambelt.

Or should I just nitromorose sticker bum twatt black spring chop mongify it and see if Ma will be down with such epic radicalness.

Scrapper? Why not find a Fashionista who wants to "OMG Ratluk" his minty mint GLof. You could swap all your fucked panels, take the good ones, and charge the knobber a twatload of cash for releasing the "patinated" panels we see before us. It worked for a mate of mine. He had a White Mk5 Cortina with a red bonnet. He met a bloke who had a Red Mk5, with yup, you guessed it, a white bonnet. A deal was struck, my mate did the spanner work, and earnt money from the other guy!

Craig will post stuff out but if you're stuck I could collect/store for a while if needed.

Thanks for the responses, it's occured to me that if I get lucky and can intercept one on its way to the bridge the cost would be about zero, better pull my finger out, I reckon they could be all gone in a few years, especially the ones running around with no paintwork.
