Pretty much everything - UPDATED 02/08/09

Family circumstances have given me a curse and a blessing - short story is I'll be buying a car soon but can no longer build one.

As such everything I have will be going I reckon. From the top of my head (not near the garage) I have:-

LHD rolling chassis originally destined for a French locost racing series. Chassis has been galvanised at reputable company, has full roll cage, front upper & lower wishbones, front hubs & uprights (no calipers fitted), steel floor, alu panels to sides, brake pipes, rear axle (no diff fitted). Probably best I attach some pics which I shall get round to tomorrow, but didn't want to exclude from this post. Hoping for around £450.

Brand new 2.0 litre blacktop zetec engine, bought from Great British Sportscars/kitcarpartsdirect. Still on pallet, top packaging removed so I could look at it but all wrapped up still. Cost me £690+ delivery, will take £600+delivery.

Engine mounts for zetec, £35

Engine mounts for xflow (from Luego), - £30

Type 9 gearbox, £50

White GRP scuttle (new) from GTS to fit standard locost, £95

1700 xflow block, not touched since it was bored (711 block) - offers?

Panhard rod from luego, £15

Carbon can co R6 racing can in purple/blue, £30

Luego (locost) rollbar including horizontal and diagonal bracing as shown in the last pic in my archive, £35

Upper sierra steering column inc wheel and collapsable section (pic in archive), £30 (also have lower section to mount to rack for £10)

Type 2 escort gearbox, exchanged for a packet of biscuits. Same with single piece propshaft from donor vehicle.

Griffin racing inlet manifold, sees a 30hp gain on standard, £80 (more info http://www.griffinpower.co.uk/html/total.htm) - SOLD PENDING PAYMENT

Wing mount stays by GTS, £30 - SOLD PENDING PAYMENT

Black nosecone, fits book chassis, £30 - SOLD PENDING PAYMENT

Escort steering rack in excellent condition - suspect it's a quick rack but not sure (anyone know how I tell?) As such, £25 - PROVISIONALLY SOLD

Big valve xflow head, I think 39mm/34mm valves and ported. £80 - PROVISIONALLY SOLD

1.3l xflow with attached gearbox (no carb fitted but could probably supply), unknown spec but came with chassis and was destined for racing series, £50 - PROVISIONALLY SOLD

4:1 stainless exhaust manifold to suit the above. Excellent condition, £130 - FIRST DIBS TAKEN

All of the above +postage, or could possibly deliver some.

I'm struggling to think of other stuff, even though there is loads. I have some calipers arriving from alfasudsprint (I had planned on using them alfa, sorry for selling them on) but will update the list once I have a looksy round the garage.

Will take care of photos etc tomorrow.

Cheers

Mark

Edited with some slightly reduced prices, a couple of more items and pics in my archive. Apologies for poor quality and lack of presentation, time pressures taking their toll.

Will look into postage costs for interested parties tomorrow, and get some proper pictures to each.

Cheers
