Mislisting or not I'd say that was about the right money, wouldn't you? Thought the box might come in handy, but that sounds shot anyway ;D

If it goes for £300 or you negotiate afterwards for less its a cracking project either way.

Quite right, although I'd want more rubber, better suspension, cage etc. Which means a full strip down, by which time I'd want a 4cyl turbo Japanese engine, Watanabes, respray in white with an orange hard top... Has it ended yet? Can i look out from behind my hand ;D |

Zero bids. Whos off to rob this man of a project then?

read the auction page carefully
no dizzy, no manifolds, gearbox goosed, engine not fitted properly, ss1 bodywork damaged really badly
the seller previously tried to sell the engine and box for 250, and failed
i was watching the auction, but 300 is just too high for 150 quids worth of engine and some scrap bits.

What at first looks like a suspension strut appears to be the new frame for the dampers  Do SS1's not have an inboard damper arrangement? It looks like the V8 has taken up the space for that, so a serious bodge has been thrown in. And I doubt the bonnet (if you call it that) will close. Smashed windscreen. A lot of work to remedy, but only for someone who knows what they're doing. I think I said the same last night...."Is it any wonder BIVA was introduced?" |

I have to admit I didn't look that closely at it.... In part because I wasn't interested and in part because I didn't want to be....

just out of interest i checked ebay for RV8 motors; sellers are struggling to get 100 quid for them, now might be a good time to buy and stash away for future use
