Hi,
I am looking for a cheap V8 yank, anything considered, from full on rust bucket with good engine and box, to a fully MOT'd example. I really don't care what make or model, but MUST BE V8. ;D I am looking at spending no more than £400, so that gives you the idea of the type of think I am after. Size wise the smaller the better, written off or rolling don't matter all I want it for is the engine, 'box and propshaft.
Cheers,
Stu.

Hi when was the last time it was run, does it turnover as it stands? I'm assuming it's an auto box, where are you in the country?
Cheers,

I have an early 80's caddilac 5.7 injection v8 for spares only as it is well rotten, it's been stood a couple of years but i will get it running over the weekend if you are interested, and if you don't want the full car you can take what you want and leave the rest.

Hi All,
It looks like I have now got an engine and box sorted, but i will keep my options open just incase it falls through. Thanks to all of you.
Cheers,
Stu.
