Default Magenta saph Cosworth minus engine

Here is my magenta saph most of you know it, it's had a full underside resto, I'm selling as I just don't have time to finish it again. I did make a start which includes 4 brand new Gaz coilovers, front and rear bumpers fully repainted with brand new genuine inserts at £80!! New number plate lights, mint 4x4 bonnet, refurbed rear calipers, Evo 9 front brembos and brand new omp pads and grooved focus rs discs, t5 gearbox, prop, 70m pro alloy intercooler.
Body work is good a tiny bit of corrosion on the drivers rear arch which has never got worse as its been dry stored for over a decade, interior is cloth and in very good condition, roof lining has all been re done properly.

My resto thread for pics etc
https://passionford.com/forum/restor...n-deja-vu.html

The car needs,
Engine
Turbo
Rad
Fuel pump and cradle
Ecu
Braided brake lines

I want 2k for the car as once you've sorted the bits it needs you will be up to 4 maybe 4.5k and I know you can buy a running saph for that but you can't buy one in the condition this is in, 07828758738

I'd rather it went complete to be honest, but if needs must I'll get back to you.

Car has a few marks here and there like any old car, rust is just what i have mentioned on the drivers arch which is minimal but im being as honest as i can be, as for rust strut tops etc please look at the resto thread and you will see it has NO rust other than what i stated, engine is just a built block with a piston missing and head is as i took it off, not really much to see, its done 500 miles since the pics on my thread, hope that helps.

I tried replying but it says you cant except pm's, it ran lean on cylinder 3 which cause the ring gap to close up allowing oil up and this is what caused the smoke, so new piston and put it back together, then choose your turbo spec etc and get it mapped.
