Minimad5 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Evening all,Let me start off by painting the picture, i'm trying to reduce the fleet drastically, and with the funds buy my first property, so prices you see are not set in stone, feel free to PM me an offer on anything.LOCATION: Wirral / Chester / Cheshire.Not everything in this thread is car related (sorry), but most of it should appeal to the A.S massive.No pictures as of yet, but will throw them up as and when i can. CARS Dutton PhaetonI have the Chassis and body panels, and some steering bits and bobs, god knows why i got this..But hey ho.£50 Volvo S60 2.0T (2001)Currently being used by a friend of mine, so no real rush to move it one, BUT funds required.Nice car with a cream half leather & half cloth interior, could do with a decent valet inside and out (as the exterior is actually a nice Black beneath the dust and general road grime), - But i'll see what the local foreign car wash can do first.Few dings, scratches etc but nothing drastic.Would benefit from a service, which i'll do if someone is willing to pay the full asking price (Yes i'm being a total mingebag)Mileage is quite high, at around the 200K mark but it seems to drive and run okay.£450 Honda CBR1000F (1990) Spent some pennies on this getting it road legal (Rebuilt front calipers by I think Powerhouse)Brand new Honda cam chain tensioner, along with tensioner blade etc.This cured the typical CBR chain clatter, which has annoyingly returned slightly (Just a small 'tick' 'tick' sound), however this may be due to the stupidly expensive Castrol race oil it currently has, so i'll do another oil change and see what it sounds like.Had new plugs, oil and filters etc etc when the above was carried out.It's also got some fancy disks up front (Says the chap who MOT tested it) along with Goodridge braided brake and clutch lines.Had new wheel bearings front and back, along with a new chain & front sprocketCurrently fitted with a full stainless steel Remus exhaustFairing is a bit tatty, with the odd scrape, crack and nick here and there, but will get pictures to show condition.Ooh and a new rear tyre which cost 'quite some pennies' this being a Bridgestone Battlax T30.£895 PARTS First up for 'parts' i have some 13" Alleycats (4x108), i'd like £120 for them please.Just like these (Picture not mine, just used as reference) Secondly a Ford RS bodykit for a MK3 three door Fiesta, so front Valance piece, skirts and rear bumper lower piece.Sadly this hasn't stored well, but a tickle with a heat gun should have it nice and straight again.Looking for £60 Lada Riva 1.2 & 1.3 Engine - No longer needed as going a different route with both of my 2105s (Rivas), the 1.2 came with a shell i purchased so history is unknown, but the 1.3 was in my daily and got serviced regularly.Not sure what they are worth, but lets say £100 for the pair, pop me another £80 and you can have a 5 speed gearbox to go with it.More to Come (and pictures) soon Junkman and pilninggas 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minimad5 Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 Further to the -lets grow up and get a mortgage fund:Honda CBR 1000F(L) Spent some pennies on this getting it road legal (Rebuilt front calipers by I think Powerhouse)Brand new Honda cam chain tensioner, along with tensioner blade etc.This cured the typical CBR chain clatter, which has annoyingly returned slightly (Just a small 'tick' 'tick' sound), however this may be due to the stupidly expensive Castrol race oil it currently has, so i'll do another oil change and see what it sounds like.Had new plugs, oil and filters etc etc when the above was carried out. It's also got some fancy disks up front (Says the chap who MOT tested it) along with Goodridge braided brake and clutch lines.Had new wheel bearings front and back, along with a new chain (Front sprocket to be fitted 'when' it arrives !) Currently fitted with a full stainless steel Remus exhaust Fairing is a bit tatty, with the odd scrape, crack and nick here and there, but will get pictures to show condition. £895 warren t claim and UltraWomble 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers I have been in contact when these were first put up and the OP said he was very busy and the Herald is buried under other stuff.
