Happy Haynesters...
It pains me to say this, but after nearly a year of no work on the project, I think its finally time to let it go. As has been spotted on my build website, I've done nothing since last November. Two reasons for this; new job leaving little spare time and a gorgeous baby boy born in Jan eating what other time I had left :rolleyes:
So, I have the following stuffed into my (and the mother-in-laws) garage:
1600 pinto with all parts (starter motor, clutch, carb, etc)
Type 9 gearbox - fully cleaned and degreased
All drive shafts and half shafts
Rear diff
Front hubs - stripped apart with new bearings waiting to go in
Front and rear brakes - front cleaned, rears stripped down
5 alloy wheels with good tyres off the Sierra donor
Full wiring loom from Sierra donor
All clocks and gear stick gator
Haynes Front nose cone in black
2 x Maxi ball joints
Steering column and wheel with keys
Old Sierra steering rack
V5 and chassis plate from donor - currently on SORN so new owner can register an age related plate
Steel build table with plywood top
Basically, this should be everything to bolt to a chassis to get to the rolling/driving stage. Some parts have been cleaned & degreased, others are exactly as they came off the car.
There's might be more stuff, once I uncover it all from the garage. Best to look though the pics on my blog. Anyone interested will prob need a van and some strong mates to move the engine (i've got quite a steep drive!:D )
Looking for a builder to give these parts the new life they deserve, offer me a sensible price and take the whole lot home.
Either PM or email: john at beardyjohn dot com
Cheers
