Wow that’s a lot of stuff. I recon you could have that finished in a month.

Is it any one we know?

Things like this always make me wonder how many builders are out there struggling on without the help of the forum. I don’t think I would have even started if it wasn’t for the forum.

Cheers Ginge

Thats a bargain, anyone who is silently skulking in the backround of this forum thinking about building, go and buy that lot and get stuck in

Wow, lots of stuff there, but I still think its going to take loads more cash and certainly more than a month. If you actually look into it, there is a huge pile of work there. I reckon if I was to right out bullet points.... I could highlight hundreds of hours work on that.

You're right there Deezee, after a quick look there is still bodywork, dampers and lights to buy - £1500 + other odds and sods + a lot more still to do.

Gets somebody a good start though but maybe over priced.

Default Sold to the lowest bidder.

I have agreed to purchase this set up from the owner. There's loads of stuff all over his garage in boxes that wasn't in the ad. Managed to haggle him down a few hundred quid too, wasn't willing to pay the full £1475. I'm picking it up on Monday, so will report back when I have my hands on the bounty to let you know how much work there is to do. Needless to say I'll be paying Saturn a visit for any extras I need and for bodywork.
Can't wait to get started.
Alan

Its really sad to see another build up for sale. (but a new one born) I have really been stuggling for time and motivation on my own build recently hence the lack of time on this site (Spikehaas) Dont even have time so sort out why I can't log into my old account?

Stoneleigh is creeping near, this always spurs us on. Shame I can only make Monday. Good luck to however wins that lot. It looks a great deal!
