iTrader: (1)

well done fella looks really nice i loike the engine bay all ya really need 2 do is sort the rust out really mate

scottyrs

iTrader: (1)

looks like it may have to be sold now i cant get anybody to do the engine work local and i dont have alot of money to jus take it anywhere problem is i realy dont know what its worth any ideas thanks

scottyrs

iTrader: (1)

just a rough price what i should advertise it for before i make my add up cheers

benporter

iTrader: (1)

Price with the engine out?

scottyrs

iTrader: (1)

either really mate i could get the engine fitted back in but i think if someone bought it then they would take then engine out anyways to get it rebuilt or wotever it needs?? had a few pms about breaking it but really wouldnt know how to do it i think i would make a decent amount tho some nice bits on it koni's,new turbo,pace cooler, and turbo cooler ect ect

benporter

iTrader: (1)

the fact its got no mot or tax etc will massively effect the price down to maby 2k, maby end up breaking it

Captain500rs

If your gonna get rid, its worth more in bits mate, there is a couple of places do engines in North East, Cleasby's in Durham 0191 3782407 and engine servies in Dunston 0191 460 5256. If engine is out its gonna be cheaper to start with less labour.

scottyrs

iTrader: (1)

yes the engine is out mate so thats a bonus then! and i really dont know what it needs could be a cheap fix maybe, id much rather keep it and get it going then have to sell it tbh. cheers ill keep them both in mind!

scottyrs

iTrader: (1)

yeah i know mate i think if i can get a permanent place to keep it ill just plod on with it and get it finished or at least tax mot ect like you say then see whats what let me know about the engine builder still tho please if he could do it ill keep the car for defos!!
