Honda IMA hybrids are very cheap, seen them go for £500
There are a couple of electric conversion websites I'll try to find links for.

Reverse flushing the heater matrix pretty much doubled my heater output in all my Senators and Monzas.

Actually, a left hand drive manual would be ok. Well, half ok. I'd still struggle with the clutch.
Hmm.
To be honest, I usually struggle to remember which side of the car to get into when there's a lefty on the fleet.
I'll go back to my thinking room

I have opened the boot (as it's the only bit I can get into) and it's all still there.
Manual conversion is a no-no due to my fragile physical state, RHD would require a new firewall so that's a no too. Wheels and lowering are where it's at.
LHD leaves room for throttle bodies or carbs or whatnot.
I'd forgotten that all my donor bits were in the shape of a Senator that I sold in one piece. New donor required.
Yes. I sold a car.
No, it won't become a habit.

Did you ever get to use that spoiler from off my old P100?
It's more like "will I ever get time to use it" or "will anyone ever let me use it" I still have it but it is homeless. Mind you, with two RR events this year.... Sent from my GT-I9195 using proboards

I don't really need to explain mine, just thought I'd join in.

Crikey. 2 years and it hasn't moved.
I'd better make a plan.

GOOD NEWS! ! ! ! !
I have extracted this from the storage hedge in anticipation of some Goodwood related tomfoolery.
Since the road going white GSE seems to have been kidnapped, I thought I ought to mobilise something else.
Charged battery, added some fuel and it started right up.
Found an engine idle ecu that wasn't full of water and that bits fixed. ABS tested, needs a bit of welding still and a headlight.
Then it's just a respray and the associated bodywork, a set of wheels and tyres, cleaning, servicing, road testing, tax, MOT, insurance, suspension, hifi and probably a degree of "misc."

My ageing phone doesn't have any more space for applications. I'll see what I can do though.

Got a frankly awful but quite tidy 97 Hyundai Atoz in domestic appliance white. Needs a battery, stat housing and the gearbox has always been noisy but really it's minimal fuss to have a dreadful car.

Righto. Orange and white might be tough as I'm sure I only collected green but I'll have a look.

Anything you particularly want?

No probs. If anything turns up I'll post it here but no current plans to increase my stock.

It's a TDA 7554E little age related wear to the source button and by the volume control and some minor marks to the very left of the fascia.

Right.
I have 7886 and 7887 in dash 3 disc
7565 and 7566 which are awesome.
7554, 7543, 7562, 7802, 7584, 7574, 7584 and a 7618 but you wouldn't want that.
Also assorted Sony, Kenwood, Pioneer, JVC, Panasonic, Clarion, there a CD changers and leads, crossovers etc, all 90s ish as modern stuff is all flashing lights and tat. Bit disorganised at the moment.
If photobucket worked then I'd show you.
