Abandoning Race Car Project - West Sussex :(
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi all,

I've finally had to admit that I no longer have the time to complete this build, so am regretfully selling up. I've collected a lot of good parts over the years, most of them brand new, so hoping for them to go to a good home. They're not likely to see the track any time soon with me :( . I'm located near Chichester in West Sussex for collection, but will post smaller items for additional cost. Open to offers.

Will put up pics soon...

Cambeeeeeree'!!

In the 13's at last!.. Just

I'll have the 1300GT short engine if the block doesn't have the hole above the centra main. Could you deliver?
Pm me please.

I will have the Gaz shocks if you can send them to Heathrow area ?

Dibs on rear camber brackets and 4 x hi-lo's!

How has the boot floor been fixed to the car?

Front camber arms, rear camber brackets, top mounts and rear Hi Los have gone.

Front Hi Los are still for sale, brand new £30.

Rusty 998, sorry someone has already called dibs on the dampers.

Kean, the floor has only been trimmed, I didn't even get round to fixing it so it's not even drilled.

Is it possible to edited posts?

I'll post some more photos in a minute.

Some photos from today, all prices as above in first post-

Front & subframes, price includes everything shown








New Steering Rack


Hubs. I noticed a couple of the threads on the ball joints have been knackerd, so will include a brand new pair of ball joints in the sale as well:



Brake Master Cylinder


Brake callipers. One nice, one not.


Minispeed Carbon Boot Floor:


Single skin, Mk3+ Fibreglass Boot lid:


Fibreglass front:


Doors, white one will need some work on the bottom of frame, otherwise, both skins good:

I'll take the boot floor mate, could you look into posting it?

I'll see if I can arrange collection by one of my minions.

Kean, yeah sure. Where do you want it posted to? Collection would be better if possible though as I wouldn't want it getting damaged in the post. Andy

Some more photos of the engine stuff for sale:

hi, you got any pics of the rad?

No pics of the rad at the moment. I'll take some this weekend, get some dimensions and post them up for you.

Andy

i would have the steering rack PMd

GAZ dampers and front Hi Los sold.

No mention of the alloy fuel tank, is it for sale?

How much?

Myamini,

Maybe, to be honest I haven't put it up for sale yet as I remember it had a leak from the filler cap when I water tested it (I made it myself). I was going to get a new seal for it, but never got around to it. If that's not a problem for you, then yes I'll sell it. It's a 14L ally, internal baffled, CNC laser cut & TIG welded tank with a Suzuki motor bike filler cap.

Let me know....

Andy

How much are you looking for inc postage?

Gregh55,

The rad is about 570 x 380 x 65mm and weighs 2.5kg. Pics below:

PM'd regarding hubs, lower arms, and tie rods.

Is the steering rack a quickrack? If so how much and can you post?

Cheers
