I've been nibbling away at this for a while now, selling bits individually, but the time has come to clear the drive so I'm hoping to find homes for a lot of the remaining parts.
Still got plenty of the smaller items but several panels are spoken for already.
Please contact me to discuss collection or courier for large items (or possible delivery depending on your location)

Bonnet - £60
Drivers door, includes window regulator and glass - £100 (Or will dismantle and sell parts separately)
NSR wing - £75 SOLD
Pair of sills - £40
Roof complete with loom and hydraulic pipes - no motor assembly - £200
202 alloys with average tyres - £350 SOLD

Always open to listening to reasonable offers. :wink:

Feel free to ask about other stuff which I may still have.

Hi Martin

Have emailed you about adding the NSR wing to my collection of parts if it’s a good panel please.
Got the email Tom. Will send you a photo in the morning. :thumbsup:
 
Forgot to add that I have both side skirts/sill panels - £50 the pair
Can discuss delivery etc.

In the back of the shed now, but can dig out photos for anyone interested.

Love those wheels - like 107's but a bit of a modern twist
Yup, same but different.

And...................... just sold, so you're not the only one who likes them it seems. :wink:
 
You got the seats still? Considering buying a fixer upper for a wee project (can’t bring myself to break them :cry: )

Sorry, seats were basic and damaged. Went to [ref]Usel[/ref], who seems to be 'into leather' in a good way and at the very least has plans to use the materials.
I'm with you on the breaking angle. Hurts me to do it, but when they are beyond saving it has to be better for an enthusiast to pass bits on instead of watching the thing get crushed.
I make next to nothing on the cars I rescue, due mainly to the fact I want the next owner to enjoy it, not worry about it. But if, after 3-6 months of my time I can walk away without a loss and see another zed taken on by a happy owner then it's worth while.
My ex-purchasing manager, Scottish wife (monetarily constipated by both breeding and education :roll: ) gave me a simple brief. Don't lose money! After nigh on 2 years of tinkering I'm still borderline evens, but I've had so much fun and helped loads of members with their cars too. It's well worth doing. IMO.

Thanks for coming back to me, Yeah I’ve always wanted to do it and seeing you, bigwinn and street saving some lovely cars has inspired me having missed out on a few decently bets through procrastination! I’ve seen some that would make more money in bits but just want to see them saved if I can.

Think hard, plan carefully and be canny with what you buy. Do it for a hobby. Then look at the face of the person who drives it away. Don’t expect to make any profit other than a warm feeling. I’ll be here to help and I’m sure you’ll get plenty of support

Drivers seat has been fully stripped. Managed to get the heat pads out intact. I have plans for pretty much all of the parts of the seats. What I did find interesting was this that floated out when unthreading the leather:

Someone bought a new leather seat cover in 2016 and they managed to wear a hole through the bolster since then!
Certainly must have been a heavy user!

Are you sure that’s not a date format? Makes more sense to be 16 May 05?

I have just spent too much time on this but Mexico has the same date format we use.

ISO 8601:2004 industry standard they should have used 2005/05/16

However I think you are right :thumbsup:
