Haynes/Saturn MX5 build parts
Ive had a change of heart on an unfinished project that I bought from eBay and have subsequently bought a load of parts for before discovering some
issues with the chassis. We have 2 young kids so I'm unlikely to have time to build a new chassis in the near future.
Im undecided whether to hang onto everything until I have time make a new chassis, or to sell the bits so testing the water to sell everything
together, ideal for someone setting out on an MX5 buid!
Update - I will split, prices added below. If any of them seem way out let me know.
Haynes roadster bodywork (all RAL2009 Traffic Orange except front arches in white): nosecone, bonnet, side panels, rear tub, rear arches, and front
arches. (everything except scuttle). There are 2cans of 2k RAL2009 for the arches. £450

Unopened Gaz shocks & C spanner.£250
o 14" Open 9.5" Closed shocks & 1.9" 350 Rate 8" Free Length Springs
o 12" Open 8.5" Closed shocks & 1.9" 200 Rate 7" Free Length Springs
Bolt kit for wishbones, shocks and hubs.inc if wishbones and shocks/springs bought together.
MX5 Front hubs and rear hubs £50

Thanks for the replies. I am happy to split if all the big bits would go fairly quickly. Only one of those I haven't that someone hasn't
expressed an interest in yet is the cage.

Chassis has obviously gone separately

Just had a better look at the loom, it has been cut about. No sign of ignition barrel though intrigingingly I have a key! I'll add photos to
Flickr now but as it's not complete it can go free to anyone who wants to collect it.

1 bodywork photo below, more in the Flickr album accessible by clicking the photo.
Side panels and rear arches were unwrapped for the first time to photograph and came from Equinox in faversham earlier in the year.
The rest came with the kit on eBay, there are a couple of small marks on the nose come all but 1 should polish/wet and dry out, and one bubble on the
rear panel approx 3mm x 1.5mm. I had intended to cover this with the number plate. Photos of the marks in the album
