Locost kit car for sale

Hello, I have decided to reluctantly put my project up for sale. I have been at it for around 2 years and accumulated a lot of parts but don’t have the time to work on it any more.

The chassis is a book built based on the original book with a escort live axel, I have listed the parts below that I have with the sale

Chassis (part panelled in ally)
Live axel (cleaned and painted fully welded)
Pan hard rod
Rear disc conversion
Trailing arms
Full front suspension (bought not home made)
Gaz shocks all round
4 x 5 spoke alloys (BSA make)
4 x Steel build wheels
4 x Hubcentric wheel spacers
New discs and pads front and rear
Calipers front and rear
Unused brake line and fittings
Pedal box (professional built not a sierra one, one hole cut in back plate)
2 x brake cylinders and brake bias
1.8 Zetec silver top engine (this is the 130bhp variant) bought direct from Ginetta and has not been stamped which means you can stamp it pre 95 for emissions), this also has a 1.8 clutch with very little use and a modified sump for clearance.
Ginetta modified plenum and a 2ltr throttle body, repainted black
Tiger radiator
Smoothed rocker cover (waiting to be painted)
Escort steering rack and used track ends
Steering column sections
Sierra steering column with non sierra steering wheel
MK indy fuel tank to suit this setup
New fuel pump and filter
New oil filter
MT75 gear box complete with the Westfield MT75 – Zetec release bearing

I also have various other part that came off the engine such as the alternator and starter and some parts I bought for the engine.

I also have a ECU bought direct from Extra EFI complete with loom that’s never been out of the box.

Im sure that’s the lot.

Anyway im trying to test the waters at the minute and dont have a price however those in the know should realise what I have spent so far and im willing to negotiate a suitable price.

I am based near Doncater South Yorkshire.
