Default Selling up! - Saturn Bodywork (White) / Chassis / 1.8 1997 MX-5

Hi all.

Its been ages since ive been online. Work has been mental busy in the past few years, and im just not getting the time to keep at my kit car project. Ive done next to nothing since march, and now im being forced to move house, to somewhere smaller and it doesnt have a garage!

Im selling my equinox bodywork which is complete, never been fitted, not a mark on it, in white, with black front wings. This cost me £1000 a couple of years ago. Its all been stored in my spare room since, so is in as new condition.

Ive also got a saturn based chassis which ive made from scratch. Its fully welded, but is just a basic chassis, with no front suspension mounts or steering brackets in yet. The chassis is true +/- 1mm in each direction, all MIG welded by myself (professional welder).

In addition i have a 1997 Mazda MX-5 1.8 122k miles car which has sat on my driveway for the past 3 years. It ran great the last time i fired it up (about a year ago). Its had a brand new altenator fitted about a year ago. It is covered in paint overspray, currently SORN'D and is not fit for road use.

I also have 2x GRP race seats in black, very lightweight, comes with seat runners.

Im happy to sell things seperatley or as a whole. Im open to any offers?

Pics available on request.

Cheers,
stewart

Sorry to hear that Stew....
It must have been a hard decision to sell up buddy but needs must.
Good luck in whatever you do in the future.

Thanks for the kind comment johno, is a shame to have to sell up. I wouldnt be if i wasnt forced to move and had a lack of space. Big shame!

This is a good chance for some builders to grab a bargain, especially on the bodywork, it is MINT condition.
