Engine build in this thread:
http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.p...tid=129557&fr=0

Now looking rather sad:


It has the Cooper S brake conversion, 10" Sc split rims, cooper interior, hi-los all round, adjustable camber whotsits, quickshift, MP3 CD player.

Bad points... it is very rusty. It will need a new front end, new sills, doors and boot lid very soon. The rims leak and need inflating before use.

Everything for sale except the EFi gear, manifolds and turbo.

PM me for more info.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Wheels need re-sealing. I just did not seal them properly. It's a tyre off job to do it properly.

No marks on the rims, but some of the screws have surface rust and the centres could do with a re-paint.

Tyres are 10" Falkens.

Collection only though.

It's not 2".

I want £30 for the exhaust inclding the link pipe. It's the hanger type as is the subframe. However, I'll need to keep it on the car until the engine has sold.

Indeed *surprised* Price dropped.

I don't need the money for this lot and the other cars. I just need to free up some space for a new project, so I am open to sensible offers.

If the brakes are not taken I could maybe be interested if you can be bothered to send to Norway.

Could you please wait a bit guys. Someone has expressed an interest in buying the car complete.

I'll let you know if it happens.

This car has been parked behind the Motorhome for about 6 months and has not been touched.

First thing this morning I turned on the ignition... Nothing.

Charged the battery up, turned the key and off she went.
