right as it stands now it seems I am never gonna get around to putting my clubby turbo back on the road :dozing:
it has a mg turbo lump which I was told had done 21000 miles which I belive by how it runs :geek: it starts first time every time no smoke and no rattles
ported and chamber worked head , cossie intercooler and all needed pipe work,dump valve and bleed valve etc
if I do break the clubby I'll offer the basicaly everything from under the bonnet ,injection tank ,maybe the front frame with 1.5 neg bottom arms ,adjustable tie bars and metro 4 pot solid disc setup driveshafts etc
I could also offer the steel clubby nose and bonnet with the rad and intercooler attached opinions on a value ?

it can be seen running no problems

I have only strayed to this thought today as the shell is looking a little ropey and I am kind of bored with mini's now

it is not that bad looking other than the black ead on the red block realy I guess a quick going over with gunk and a hose would inprove it Lol

You'll get a pretty penny for it on E-Bay. Describe it well tho' for Christs sake!

I've just got all the Turbo bits for a conversion with lots of extras, and that was over a ton. I thought that a was a very fair price as well.

yup thinking about it I could use the subframe so I'll pop the engine and all the bits required to get it running as one auction and the clubby front as another
then when they have gone I'll start listing some of the other bits such as the mint doors I have stashed away for it :geek:
