lotusmadandy - 19/7/10 at 06:20 PM

I have asked this question before but i am going to ask again.

I am after a zetec engine,complete or short.Does anyone have one gathering dust/getting in the way,that they want rid of???

Close to the north east would be a bonus.Beer tokens waiting.

Eh, you broke yours mate?

Just bought one dont be telling Steve cos I paid more than the 50p he paid for his last one! Or was the last one free??

Any way, still need a few more bits to collect before the winter upgrade can start.

Cheers

Rich

Ooh, high tech fix, I was going to gaffer tape a bit of cardboard over it
How's £2,000 sound, for that I'll even include the remains of the piston, just needs a bit of Blu-tac, be OK


coozer - 19/7/10 at 10:04 PM

Well now boys, I have too many engines in the garage.. remember what I said about the zetec Andy?

Anyway Rich, heres a pic of the one I've just picked up



Yeehaaaa!!


RichardK - 19/7/10 at 10:12 PM

Christ on a bike, that jago's gonna sound nice, is that a silver top behind? Did you know Andy's looking for one of those.

Stafford, Probably still with the pinto and its last drive out.

Yep, he knows its there, that was the free one.. there's a much better T16 turbo further back that I'm keen to get shot of, however I'm real fond of zetecs

Me and Tez are coming down to Stafford and we'll join you at Whetherby again

LG,
Steve


lotusmadandy - 20/7/10 at 07:52 AM

I know how fond you are of zetecs Steve,even more than me!!

Thats why i didnt persue the issue any further,cos i know you will regret letting me take it.
I sold my spare for next to nothing a short while back and as soon as the van left the street,i knew i had made a big mistake
I payed more for the big end bolts than i sold the engine for.

Now i need a new zetec fix

If you're still looking I have a 1.8 black top in the garage gathering dust I'd get shot of for not much money.

Yep I have a Blacktop 2 litre with all ancileries, ecu, injection and gearbox all cling wrapped and on a pallet as it was when I bought it to put in a Indy but repaired thye Pinto block instead. Only trouble is I paid £140 then another £50 to have it couriered from darn sarf. I'm moving house so it could go for £100 if you arrange collection.


ChrisW - 20/7/10 at 10:34 AM

What gearbox is on it?

I don't want to tread on any toes here, but that is a very tempting offer. If there is a queue / line, can I join!

What I'm trying to say is, if none of the previous posters want it, I'll have it.

lotusmadandy - 20/7/10 at 06:04 PM

Thanks for the offers gentleman,I think i might be sorted.

Mike, if you want the 2.0,you go for it.
Its a bargain.
