Complete Haynes Kit £1000 off or Bargain Parts!

Due to another bout of terrible bad luck it does look like Im going to have to kiss good bye to my haynes roadster project. (I thought having a timing belt done was meant to save me money in the long wrong not reck my diesel fuel pump!!!!)


I have loads of parts and will post the full list if the big items sell for what I want.

The nice thing is I havent started assembly yet (other than checking the fit of engine and suspension) So its at a similar point to what a new kit purchase would be.

Completed chassis, to book with rear end to suite triton bodywork (which I have), etche primed and given a coat or too of matt black enamel and looking really good, chassis has an ali floor riveted and bonded in place. I have cut the seat back ali panel to a nice fit and is ready to rivet in, also have cut and bent the tranny side panels. The chassis used brackets and laser cut plates from 3ge and is to a good standard. A few locoster have looked at it and said it was to a good standard. You'd be looking at £950 with the ali new. Save loads and buy mine for £500.

Full set of 3ge wishbones, with the wider track for the rear so no modding driveshafts, complete with bushes, inserts, suspension bolts. £400 from 3ge, bargain and £300, save yourself 130 quid including the bolts!

Rear uprights for drums, £75, I have acid etched and sprayed (over £100 ), These are new and have not been used!

Set of brand new gaz coil overs to roadster spec, £320 new £270, save £50 better than gordon browns 2.5% vat

Triton wide seats, brand new, just sat in my chassis, £220 new £180 from me!

A full set of triton bodywork, rear panel, nose, side panels, front rear arches, scuttle, bonnet. Not been fitted yet. These were seconds so need some rubbing and filling ready for paint, a new seat is around £800, half price bargain and less than what I payed £380

Please note I need to sell the chassis and pref suspensino first, I can set this up as a rolling chassis if needed. If this sells I'll then sell everything else.

I have a shed load of parts that can then go
2.0 lt zetec pre emissions 88k with chopped and tigged sump.
zx9r carbs
zx fuel pump
inlet flange
ms exhaust manifold, need slight mod but will work well.
all suspension joints,
new steering rack, ali rack clamps and extension arms
mushroom inserts,
full set of sierra running gear
polo rad
cooling pipework for zetec with header tank
a set of 15" alloyswheels with really good tyres.

If someone wanted to make me an offer on every"thing I'd let it all go for £2500 a grand less than what its worth, its really only need another 600 spending on it plus sva.

If the chassis ans susp sells I'll consider selling the other bits. Really prefere collection on most parts as too much and too heavy to post
Cheers

Mike

Hi mate.

Sorry to here about you bad luck.
Sometimes you think no matter what you do, everything is against you......

The only things I am looking for at the moment are a pair of 4 point harnesses,
and a a pair of offset insert mushrooms.

Can you help?
