as some of you will probably know i have sold my 3door...the only thing i will have left is my engine....still umming and ahhing about wheter i want to part with it or put it in something else and have a laugh.....thought E30 bmw as much as i hate bms, but would be ok with engine removed

i also like old granadas, had loads of scorpio,s in the past and thought well the cossie would drop straight in with factory mounts etc.....just for the fun factor...£500 granada +500+BHP cossie engine i would feel like i was in the sweeneyROFLOL suggestions please before i decide if i,m definiteley selling it

 

just get shot kev, your hearts not in it anymore, offroad you go!

steve

 

Steve, you have just said what every friend i have that is over 30 has already told me

 

Why not put it in one of the caravans you sell. WIll be a proper sleeper

 

AFPMSL

 

i'll gladly donate my saph for 1 final fling mate

 

Would say go for a E30 for a bit summer fun then sell the engine when you get bored.

 

lol I am over 30 we have a different outlook on life imo.

we get far too sensible in our old age!! lol

steve

 

Mk2 Escort.

 

If I was in your position, then I'd drop it in a Sierra Pickup or an E30 Touring.... however, cause you're asking then it seems like you're not really into it and that it might be a waste of time and money to take a project on.


Cheers,
Grant

 

mondeo

 

this man is talking sense

 

Been there, done that built a 330 bhp mk2 rs 2000 back in 1993...and i aint paying what mk2,s are commanding now!..then spending fook knows how much on it for all the bits you need to make it handle properly with a cossie in it

Steve...lets get the pipe and slippers out

 

in that case a granada would be a proper laugh imo

 

Cheap cortina based westy type car and RWD it

Loads of fun and still get your money back when you have finished with it.


Nearly 1000bhp per tonne

 

A series manta i always liked there shape

why not just throw the engine in with the car common it only cist you around 15 grand to build throw it in FOC

 

but then again kev i might be interested in it

 

Just sell! Anything you do is going to be a faff and as someone said above; if your heart isn't in it, can you actually see yourself completing it???

 

Kev

I have a new built Ralloy full group 4 mk2 shell sat here , all painted to concourse std , this is the real deal ans cost over 20k to build

Its a bare shell and ready for build , for the right price i will sell it as i just never get anything done to it

I also have loads of bits , suspensin etc

get your cash out

 

Put it in an SJ

 

M1 granada

 

Kev i wouldnt do it if i were you if you have went this far stripping the 3 door enough is enough sell it & buy another porker as they are at the right money

 

Put it in a 928 kill 2 birds with 1 stone

 

find a coke bottle Mk111 cortina and put it in there

 

that'll be another project you start and never finish, another one you'll end up breaking and selling lol
kevin just get yourself some slipper and a pipe or you can buy mine

 

Mk3 ST Mondeo

 

who is having the rest of the car?

 

a guy from portugal iirc.

 

It's already been made clear he's a tight arse and wants to do a cheap bodge job of it.

Benni.

 

What? Take out the V6 and put a 4 pot in it. What a let down when you open your ears to hear the engine and then that goes past. Not to mention it would be FWD without work.

Benni.

 

i have a bare mk3 escort shell you can have, i'll chuck in glass, doors etc etc

 

Wonder if anyone said that to Hadland when he did his......rofl

 

Did Hadland use a ST which came with a V6? If he did, I would of said exactly the same thing.

Benni.

 

Granny cosworth or

Frog eyed cosworth but leave the outside looking stock on both

Paul

 

As if a low tune stock v6 sounds anywhere near as good as a 500bhp cossie on full chat you young scallywag....

 

First of all your argument was Hadland, which has now changed because you was wrong. Second of all, no YB engine sounds as good as a V engine and it never will. By the way, I think you was trying to call me a mongoloid, wasn't you? Oh the irony of trying to offend someone in such a manner you are claiming they are stupid, and spelling it wrong. Now run along, clown.

Benni.

 

I'd sell up, if your hearts not really in something then there's no point doing it.

However if there is a chance you'll come back to Cosworths later on - keep it
