VR6Pete 1,455 Posted August 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 Ok, viewing one tomorrow.It's a non-runner, coming in at the right price.Reason being, it needs a new heater matrix, and timing chains could do with being done.Black, L Reg.9x16 Brock b2`s 215/40/16 et35 fronts et15 rearKW v1 CoiloversTiming chains, gaskets, water pump etc... to do the timing chains and things.Needs a new wing.I wanted a project car, and this is the closet I'll get, given it needs TLC and some work doing to it.Already got everything lined up to do an OBD2 conversion, and ceramic coated 6-branch whoop.Watch this space.Pete Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted August 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Ok... I went to look at it today.I need all your advise on this;its been standing for 2 months.price £1,250.clifford concept 650 fitted.from observation - it will need a new coilpack 2 hubs as a previous owner has butchered them doing wheel bearings.bodywork, I noticed the following;arches have been rolled.slight surface rust on the drivers sill.slight bubbling on the rear drivers arch and around theslight rusting of the rear seam on the boot, inside seems solid.slight rusting around the indicator lenses on both wings, rusting on the bottom of the drivers wing.everything else seems straight and solid. Drivers window rubber has bubbledroof rubbers perished.looks like paint has been blown in a little down the drivers side now... for £2,000. I'd get the car brock B2's, KW 1 and everything to do the timing chains, matrix, headgasket, water pump, seals and gaskets. so everything that will make it mechanically sound.This would be a proper project car, needing work on the above areas before it's upto 'pete' standard.car would be dropped off to my door if I wanted it.so, what do you think?Pete Link to post Share on other sites
cabrioman 6 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 sounds like a deal that mate ..... do it .... £750 for the rims and all the gear to do the mechanical stuff not bad how much are the rims worth as the chains, water pump etc etc will be atleast £300 ish ..... body work is body work can get new/used pannels .....hubs get them of here with some bigger brakes like 288 if not already fitted ....
