As most of you are probably aware, up untill october '07 I was working on a turbo minus (http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php?p=vt&tid=168459) when I had a change in circumstances, then bought a house, and the list of excuses as to why I have done fook all to it goes on and on. I've spent alot of time today thinking realistically am I going to get to finish it, I have more jobs than I care to list to get my turbo mini back on the road for this season with the tight timescale Im on, and generally have very little spare time and funds to complete the minus. I know I have mentioned in the past about selling projects, but never thought about it this seriously.
In Short, Im basically starting this thread to gague interest, to see if anyone would be interested in taking it off my hands and completing it. Also I would appreciate a few thoughts on a guide price if it was to go, either as a pile of parts, or a package. parts I have are as follows.
Shell with mk1 bootlid, and ally skinned doors.
Mk1 powder coated subby, all new bushes, bearings etc.
7.5" rebuilt brake asy
Beam axle with coilovers and rebuild radius arms
Powdercoated 10" minilghts with a032r's
Rack, column and pedal box, gear selecotor (with quickshift)
Cage

There are a whole host of other parts, but cant list any more off the top of my head.
The car can be made a rolling shell in a few hours.
Those of you who have seen my turbo mini can vouch I like carrying out work to a decent standard, but there is still a lot left to do.
Your thoughts please.
Cheers
Shane

As you will obviously no most things are worth more if you strip them for individual bits. obviously not easy if you dont have the time.

I allways find unfinished products hard to sell as a whole but it would be nice if potenshall buyers looked at all the bits included and add up how much it would actually cost.

Im not in a position to buy myself shane but like you say your standard is high and it would be nice to be finished.

Good luck in the sale

If you break it for parts, I'll have the ally skinned doors!

They are mk1 fitment, also as they are for a minus they are 3" shorter, your welcome to buy if I sell but will advise you now, they wont be any good for you.
