^^ Yea,  two workmates.  From my collection of five.

They don't call me five workmates for nothing you know.

Am in Doodlay (dudley) if that helps.

I'm pulling out a recent full working gloworm combi today if anyone wants it. I usually strip them for scrap and it would be a waste if anyone could use it in. I'll take some pictures when I get there this morning.

On this point, do people fit s/h boilers these days? I know it sounds a bit ignorant but we are going to have some building work done and will be replacing our boiler, which might be an 8-9 year old (it looks very similar to new ones but was here when we moved in 6 years ago) Worcester Bosch combi. Probably not useful, but if it is then happy to put it on here when it's freed up.

[paulplom]

I've fitted them in the past. Not very often though. If you're doing a property to rent out they'd be ideal I suppose. They don't like lying around. Very difficult to get going again once laid up. Seals leak, pumps seize, gas valves stick, fans rust etc.

It's a non condenser so older than I thought.

Fair play Paul that’s a decent offer. 

I wish you were closer to where my flat is, would bin the old Biasi before it breaks!

Why are they changing it?

[paulplom]

The old one is 'only' 30kw. We did the loft out with a bedroom and bathroom and they wanted a bigger 40kw one. Even though the old one ran the 2 showers fine. I tried to put them off but, meh.

Box them up and let me know the postage please. I use mostly imperial and some whitworth, and today had to go and borrow a drill bit! No rush at all......

476 thou. That's a new one on me for a drill.

I still have your cam tool; I should be doing the cam belt next week so I'll bundle it in with that! Don't worry about postage, you've done me a favour loaning me the cam lock tools

Interested in this. Where abouts are you Paul? Can pay for postage or try and organise a relay if needs be.

Mr. Sterling, did you ever receive this?

[Lord Sterling]

Hi Paul. Sorry I've not recieved it. I can pay for postage. 

[paulplom]

No it's fine man. The royal mails must have lost/stolen it. I'll have proof of postage somewhere. Will it be worth complaining?

I can send photos of everything, the lots are all on Gumtree just now also FOC but I think it's the fact everything is in Aberdeen is putting everyone off.  I'm not keen on splitting the lots but I will help as much as I can to get the parts where they need to go. I did offer to take the E3 parts down as far as Penrith for one guy who said he would contribute towards my fuel cost but nothing came of it. I'm more than willing to do this or come further down if it helps rehome these parts.

I just don't want to throw any of it out but that's what will happen if it's all still here at the end of this month unfortunately. 

 

[Tamworthbay]

Got a load of military history books, from ww1 to Afghanistan  and a few scraps inbetween, about 17 I think, plus a stack of craptocal plastics mags that got a bit damp in the shed but still readable (mags not the books, the books are perfect). 

Free for collection from Tamworth if you are quick as I need the space.

[Flat4]

Shitely offered - going to Manchester tomorrow and back from Ardrossan if anyone needs anything moved on the way? Will be in the bus so quite a big load area.

You have got my attention, are the seats better than mine?

Maybe a little bit better? I don't have the photos on this PC however I have added the links to Gumtree on my post, there are decent photos on the listings

The seats look better than mine.

What year was the car they came out of? I ask because my current car is a 1971 and I used to own a 1975 and the floors were very different and the seats not interchangeable.

I am keen to have the radiator, front bumper, chrome belt and roof trim, front and three boxes of smaller parts. Also the seats if they are from an earlier car.

Saabnut says he will help me out storing them prior to onward travel.

The seats were fitted to a 1972 2500 so should be compatible with your car.

I'm looking to shift all of the parts as one lot, if you can do that they are yours.

Edit

That gives me an excuse to put up a picture of my E3. I have a friend helping me with it as it was hard to start and ran very poorly, but for various reasons it got put on the back burner and now I am hoping it will be all sorted for the spring.

My pin up before I was driving, well a light blue met Si but this 3.0S in cream is close enough.

[BeEP]

BEAT 175 AM/FM/USB/MP3 tuner.

Untested.  Came loose with the Austin 1800 I bought back in July.

 

 

Also Sound Barrier DC-11 2 x 20W amplifier.  Working when removed from vehicle many years ago

 

Head unit now spoken for.  Amp still available for the cost of postage (£3 - Royal mail small parcel) or free if collected from PE14.  Please send PM if interested as I'll probably forget to check back in here!

[loserone]

Would anyone be interested in a single wheeled bicycle trailer? remarkably stable, but I'm never going to use it again.

[Lord Sterling]

Yo. Old computer + flat screen monitor. Reluctant to dump it as I think its useful and there are a few old computer fettlers here:

It ran XP but hard drive will be removed.

Also, Lexmark printer/scanner. Again free to new home. No ink, hasn't had ink for a long time. Believe it still works:

No wires or plugs unless I can find them, dust will be cleaned off. Collection only - Birmingham B29.

Those E3 BMW were fucking stunning.

Kids scooters and stuff. The green one is a globber (£50). The tag along bike needs a puncture fixed. We just used to blow it up before we used it and it would last a couple of days.

Proffessional pogo stick. Terrifying and it's quite possible you could die from the height you can get on it.
