Hey

Im stripping an auto to build my track car. Now no comments about how 'its too good to strip blah blah blah'

 

Everything needs to go, all the bolt on panels, engine, interior, loom, etc.

 

Its in brilliant condition and always garaged, done 30k and the engine runs very well. Can be driven before its removed if anyone wants the engine. Everything works.

 

Most needs to be collected from Southampton but I can post some pieces.

 

PM me if there is anything you need.

 

Ben

How is it a waste? Its going to be a turned into a concours spec car that is worth 10 times its current value.

 

Left how it is someone would have left it to rust and patched the hell out of it, and be worth nothing in a few years. This way it will live on for 20 more years, and be enjoyed to its full potential.

 

Waste? .. I don't think so.

Hey,

The c pillar covers are grey, not cream. The black gutter trim would be tricky to post as it doesn't roll up, so would be the size of a roof!

 

I could do the fresh air pipe and inner wing plastic piece. Would you need them posting?

Hi, I might be interested in the engine & box along with front sub frame & driveshafts/hubs etc as a unit but the price would need to be right as I'm in North Yorkshire & to collect would be approx a 600 mile trip & 6 hrs each way.

 

To change out the lot as a unit might be a quick way for me to get my auto mini back on the road where it belongs & would allow me to rebuild my broken gearbox at my leisure.

 

I've read that the autobox usually fails at around 30k miles so maybe this is a daft idea & its too far to travel but

if the price is right ....

I've probably got enough spare caps now so I'll let someone else have a chance if they need some but I'd like all the clips though if you can pm me a price including postage for them. Ta
