I have here a twin turbo v6 sierra 4x4 which I was going to use as my donor. The car is rotten but mechanically ok. I started to strip it but realised after I sorted out my build components that i dont need any of it. Its going to be stripped in the next week or so if anyone is interested in it as a whole or in part let me know.

Pretty much a complete car, I dont mind selling it off in bits ,I have cut the front off to make it easier to pull the engine out. Its still in there but mostly disconnected. Its got a stainless exhaust system , bilstien front shocks,abs. I will get the tt install code off the airbox tomorrow as its got the hp rating on it. Wheels are shot,interior is not nice and the bodywork is horrid. All the mechanical stuff is ok.

Had a look and its an f85. The guy that I bought it from said it had been back to tt for a hop up on the standard set up and was closer to a minker what ever that is.He reckoned it pulled 165mph no problems , in his back garden of course, but that could be pub talk for all I know or care.

Minker is 323HP, F85 is a fair way off that engine wise, althought your car may have had other TT Tweaks.

As i say, I could well be interested as My TT engine is currently a non runner, although your location and price would be a big factor.
