Hi,
I have taken the very hard decision to sell my Striker that I built 20 years ago.
More details on request but its a Classic Striker, Green body, yellow chasssis. 2.0 Pinto approx 130BHP, has been tuned to 150 proir but had to
detuned for driveabilty. Twin 40 dellortos, which to be fair are a bit undersized for a 2.0 pinto and I had planned to convert to Bike carbs but never
got it done!
Have fitted a new rear end (and front wings) late last year as last one was damaged a few years ago.
Full weather gear and a tonneau cover.
Well known (?) car in the JPSC and many Le Mans trips!!!
I am in no great rush to sell, so unless someone offers me a great deal I hope to have a bit of fun in it this year first!
PM me or email edwardDOTberresfordATgmailDOTcom for more information.
Edd Berresford.

What’s the price ?
Hi,
Price?
Although obviously important, I also would like to consider the buyer's plans for Striker!
As said this is not a quick sale and I'd like to see Striker given the drives she deserves. For example I'd be very reluctant to sell to a
dealer; are such people about anymore in the Kitcar industry?; maybe someone would like to remove the pinto and sell to the rally crowd? I don't
know. I've only just made the decision to sell her and although I had a price in mind I don't wish to post it for fear of either ridicule or
compromising future dicsussions.
I am well aware of the Kitcar industry and that a car is only worth what someone is prepared to pay! Which is why I am happy to wait for the right
buyer.
Thanks.
Edd.
Hi Edd
Sorry, but I never get the ‘For sale but with no price?’ In fact it positively puts me off and everyone else that I know. For example - How do you
know if the car is in your budget or not? Just put a price up and let the market decide if it’s right or not.
Also, while going off in one, what’s it matter what happens to the car after you have sold it. Presumably you will have reached a price you are happy
with, leaving the new owner free to do what he wants with the car? If there is an attachment to the car why not keep it, even if not being used that
much?
N.B. Genuinely don’t mean to offend, just some pointers if you really want to sell.
Me too, no price no interest and chances if you ask you'll get some ridiculous over estimation of its value based on some irrelevant sentimental
thing with the owner which no one else cares about. It's just a car FS not your first born...
ps first born for sale £50,000 or px for a Tesla model 3

Guys, Stop being so harsh. Pretty sure Edd knows the realistic value. What he is most interested in is it not being stripped for parts...

I assume you don’t really want to sell it no price on a for sale advert makes no sense if you have a price in mind post it .

No price
No proper description
No referance to its history SVA/IVA/ or just on the donors reg
No Pictures
Infact all we do know, its got a boat anchor for an engine
And you still have to vet the new owner of there suitability of owning and looking after this car, and maintaning its originality
This really is going to sell the car ? ??
NOT,

To be fair I think I'd delete the thread and then when you are ready to sell it post the full spec' and price, Just trying to help
Well,
That went well! LOL!!
Taking all your comments on board! Once I get the piccies sorted I'll do some research and post a proper advert! Scheesh! You all bored
today????
Anyway, I guess my post was supposed to be the first step to selling, and letting anyone with an interest know it's out there!
I was well aware that without a price and specs I wasn't gonna get serious interest!
So, as one suggested I'll delete this thread and start a new one once I've got her in the Sun and some pics.
Edd.
PS. It was my first born!
"What he is most interested in is it not being stripped for parts..."
Indeed!
Why is that such a bad thing?
Edd
Edd Nooooo,
It’s part of you.
Quick car, I was on the LeMans trip, when I met Edd he saw me turn up in my Fiesta ST as the Lotus 7 replica had given up he said...” you should be
able to keep up” I did but boy did I have to work hard.

I think after a certain amount of time the delete option goes away. You can thank CaLviNx for that after he gave back Chis some server space following a tantrum. Don't worry we've all put stupid posts on here over the years, we don't care.
