Selling up

[CaptainCrash1971]

OK folks, after several months of little activity, I have almost certainly decided to sell up. I need to raise some money for a different project, so if enough people show an interest I'll let it go. If not, then I'll have to just carry on the build.
Here's a list of stuff I'm selling and how much I want for them. The chassis is almost complete, with one bracket that needs moving as it's in slightly the wrong place. It has the rear rails for ali bodywork, but could be quickly altered for a fibreglass tub. All the wishbones were bought from either 3GE or Saturn, except the front lowers, which were a 3GE plate kit but have been professionally welded.
The pedal box is also a 3GE kit, but also professionally welded.
Chassis 250
Front Lower Wishbones 50
Front Upper Wishbones 40
Rear Lower Wishbones 50
Rear Upper Wishbones 50
Rear Uprights 80
Diff Brackets 20
Roll Bar (from AshG) 35
Seats and Runners 80
Pedal Box 80
Steering Rack & extensions 75
Steering Rack Clamps 15
Rod Ends and Ball Joints 45
Mushrooms 35
Protech Shocks With Springs 300
Headlamp Brackets (Saturn) 20
Polybush Set 75
Suspension Bolt Set 15

Please express an interest and I'll decide if I'm going to sell at the end of the week. Thanks
Alan
p.s. I also have some donor parts but I'm in the middle of refurbing them, so will flog em later. These include front uprights, diff, hubs and driveshafts, steering column, and front calipers. If there's anything not listed please ask as I may have forgotten it. I'm also going to be selling a complete R1 engine with almost everything needed to fit into a car.

[js1uk]

Id be interested in the roll bar & steering rack with extensions please.....

[brainbug007]

what kind are the seats and could you post a picture of them?

[Eternal]

I will take the seats mate. Let me know how much courier will cost when you decide to sell and i will paypal or bank transfer you when ready. Will also take the headlight brackets as well.

[JakeH]

may be interested in the rack and clamps, what would postage be on those?

EDIT: what ratio is the rack and was it a new one or re-con?

EDIT 2: damn someone beat me to it... o'well what colour are the polybushes? may be interested in those and the suspension bolt set

Cheers

Jake

Really a courier???? Are you guys like about 77 miles apart?
I frequently drive farther than that to work!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Eternal]

County Durham to Dorset is a bit of a mission mate =P

I'd take the pedal box if you decide to sell and if it's a type 9 fitting, Dave

[CaptainCrash1971]

HAndy, they're 350 and 250 lbs if I remember correctly. They're the ones from the group buy in November

Here's a pic of one of the seats, they are brand new still in polythene

[geeman]

If Handyandy isnt interested in the shocks, id be interested in them as well, i still hvant got any for build yet. Thanks

[CaptainCrash1971]

If there's a bit more interest in the rest I'll commit to selling. I will get a price for postage for everyone who has expressed an interest. I understand people may change their minds when they get the price for postage, but will just have to hope for the best.
Eternal, I think the postage for the seats should be around £10 hopefully, but will check it properly tomorrow

[K4KEV]

Hi Alan.....gutted to hear your wrapping it up:( but since you are, is the suspension bolt set a full one?....if it is then put my name next to it and drop me a line when you are sure what's happening.

[CaptainCrash1971]

If I remember correctly Kev it's the full set for suspension, but none of the long ones for the diff.

[K4KEV]

Ok bud I'll leave it for the mo;)

[CaptainCrash1971]

No probs Kev. Anybody interested in chassis or bones? I can powder coat the wishbones in your choice of colour.

[David_17]

Don't suppose you've got a sierra master cylinder?

[CaptainCrash1971]

I believe I do. I'll have a look tomorrow.

[SeriesLandy]

I would be interested if you have the steering column extension ( the bit between the column and the rack) as I've lost the top half of mine. Price Including postage please.
Cheers

[CaptainCrash1971]

Sorry Landy, haven't sorted the donor parts out yet, but will be selling steering column complete with shroud, stalks etc. etc.

May have someone interested in the rear uprights via pm, will cross em off the list when confirmed. Looks like I'll be selling up, had quite a lot of interest, just need someone to make me an offer on chassis and bones :)

[spud69]

Just seen this - that's a big shame Alan.

Thought we were going to have another build local for trips and track days.....:(

We are nearly there with the fostering though, heading for a panel date in June.

Andrew

[CaptainCrash1971]

That's been quick Andrew. Good luck with it, it's nowhere near as nerve-wracking as we thought it was gonna be. I'll hopefully still be coming out to play with my next project, as long as non-roadsters are allowed :rolleyes:

[CaptainCrash1971]

Response has been fantastic. Looks like I'll probably have to sell, just need some interest in the chassis and wishbones. If someone is interested in buying all the wishbones together, I will consider a bulk price just to move them on. Same goes for the chassis. I may be travelling down the country next week with a car trailer, so could possibly deliver the chassis if anyone was interested.
Anyone who has expressed an interest in all the other parts, I will e-mail you probably tomorrow after sleeping on it and making my final decision. I will include a postage price wherever possible.

[JakeH]

were your sierra rear brakes drum or disc? im after some disc uprights so may be interested in those.

Cheers

Jake

[CaptainCrash1971]

Sorry Jake, they're drum. I think I have someone interested in them.

[JakeH]

Sorry Jake, they're drum. I think I have someone interested in them.

tis cool, thanks anyways

Cheers

Jake

[CaptainCrash1971]

David17, I've got a master cylinder, no idea of condition, pm sent

[Richard Dryden]

could possibly be interested in all round bones at bulk price what kind of figure did you have in mind

Thanks Richard

[rapidtornado]

I'll take suspension bolts if they are still available?

Rapid

[CaptainCrash1971]

Pm sent Richard.

[CaptainCrash1971]

After a few gut wrenching days, I have decided to go ahead with the sale of my bits :( . I've had excellent response, and I think almost everything has gone (if no-one pulls out)
I've pm'ed all concerned, but I couldn't post any pictures on the pm's, so I'll post some pictures on this thread in a few minutes.
Thanks everyone for your interest, I'll be popping back on here over the next couple of weeks with some donor stuff.

[CaptainCrash1971]

Here's some pics for the people who have shown an interest

The boltset is for rapidtornado

The diff brackets, mushrooms, polybusg set and track rod ends/ball joints are for John.W

The pedal box is for davylock

and finally the rollbar, and steering rack are for js1uk

If anyone else who has shown an interest in anything and want a pic on here just let me know

cheers
Alan

[CaptainCrash1971]
