To be broken soon. Looks a lot better than it is in the pics! Has leather interior, GTi pepperpots and various other touches... but what I want is the engine so build up into a nice race engine (130+ bhp). It runs but has no clutch cable as the clutch went stiff and it snapped. I recon thrust bearing failiure but we'll see when it comes apart! Anyway... the pics!      |

I do love these cars! I had 2 and regret not having one now...
I take it that it is a sunroof shell? If not, sell it for a crazy amount to a rally nut, they seem to go for stupid prices!
How bad is the shell generally? And are you getting rid after you get the engine out?
Thanks
Rysz.

So what bits are you planning on using on the RG??, is the interior any good in it?
also, that reflective boot panel might go for a bit on the bay of e, theres a few people around looking for them and they're pretty rare these days

I'll be keeping all the running gear as spares but everything else has to go. Adam |

Very nice to have a spares car.
I found when i stripped the Donor Mini i thought ' That'll never be used,' and 'Thats almost done/broken.' Only to get a few months down the line and regret throwing bits away. If you can get the space keep as much as you can off it, i sound like an old man but it'll be useful sometime!
Get that engine built! Doing it yourselves?

Get that engine built! Doing it yourselves? Selves? My dad ain't done anything car related (past checking tyre pressures...) in donkeys years....   But i suppose he'll stand there and point and tell me what i've done wrong!  ;D But yeh I'll be doing it myself if i can find the space / time! If you knew me / my dad you'd know that nothing is ever thrown away! My mum had to force me to dump a cracked windscreen |

Hmmm. How much for rear refelective panel and interior? Hmmm and possibly Indicators? Possibly heading into 205 ownership shortly Spares car will be good for heralding little clips etc that you always find you need!! I went an stripped most of the interior clips out of a Saxo at the scrapyard the other week. Never know when I might need them |

Reflective rear panel is the coolest thing on earth and is heading onto the other 205  Interior will clear up nicely i think, won't be looking for too much for it. I managed to break the majority of the clips due to careless removal, so i'll be going at it a bit more gently this time! |

Has that got the grey dashboard? If so how much would you want for the instrument panel, the cover and also the wiring loom for it?
Cheers
