Haynes Roadster Part Built for Sale

NOT LOOKING TO SPLIT -WOULD LIKE COMPLETE SALE

Hi all I am just guaging interest in my part build roadster.
A change in circumstance with the wife means I might be loosing my garage so won't have a chance to finish my baby!
If I get a good offer for it complete I may sell.

Chassis is 95% complete and built to a good standard using chassis plate kit from 3ge etc. Member from Locostbuilders have looked at my build an stated my welding is pretty good! All sus brackets are tacked on ready to be fully welding but this gives you a chance to check all dimension before fully welding. 90% of other welds are now fully welded and ground back where needed.

I have spend over £2500 so far and a load of hours!
List of parts I have and rough price I paid,

2.0lt Silver top Zetec 80,000 £160
Brand new Gaz coilerovers £374
2x Type 9s £40 each
2x prop shafts
Wishbone set 3ge £302 have started to paint with etch primer and matt black enamel top coat
Uprights Painted 3ge £99
Suspension bushes and insert 3GE £99
All donor parts, brakes, column, master cylcinder diff etc etc £100
Megajolt built £80
Edis Module with sensor connector and coil pack £20
Starter recent recon £30
zx9r carbs £40
new polo mk rad £40
Plumbing and header tank westfield £35
Mushroom inserts £50
New escoret mk 2 standard rack £69
Susp joints etc £60
rack extension and ally rack clamp £45
3ge pedal parts,
3ge front wing stays part built
Diff mounting brackets fully welded, the diff can sit in the chassis now.

The list goes on
I have enough suspension parts to fully build each corner to turn into a rolling chassis. Engine and gearbox have been mounted with some pretty good engine mounts I made, engine is back out at the mo.
THis would be fairly easy to finish. Mostly ali panelling and build up.

Im not looking to sell parts seperately, as most stuff is new I don't want to give it away. i would estimate another £1000 to finish this.

I can get hold of a set of build wheel if needed.

Expect at least 150bhp from the zetec!

Let me know if your interested, located nr wellingborough.
Will be sad to see her go, I had great plans!

MIKE

Just like to say
I would like to sell as one lump at the minute.

I could part assemble it into a rolling chassis and put the engine and box in to ease transportation if needed.

Thanks

Mike

Would need £2k to clear my debts!
That a saving of around £600 of the price I paid and a saving of £1000 if you were to buy a chassis pre made from 3ge.

The engine only needs an inlet and a bit of wiring the megajolt to get it running.

I also have a load of nuts and bolts etc which cost a fair few quid!
