I watched Ebay to see how much the bits left over from mine will fetch, £25 gearbox, maybe the same for the engine so the effort of pulling it apart means that once I have all the bits off mine its going to scrap (that is unless anyone wants a 4x4 Sierra without rear axle and column for free).

I,m keeping it until the cars nearly complete, even if its just for light bulbs.

id ditch the lot, just keep the column switches and about 6inches of wire off each. The bike engine will have its own alternator.

It really isnt worth 2 or 3 hours of your time getting the engine out and sold, unless you love getting filthy.

Brake servo master cylinder aint much use unless you're going ABS.
