eBay tat volume 3.


Recommended Posts

Good because it is in the far south of France for rust, bad because of the cost of bringing it home. On the face of it a fully functioning Axel at this price is great if it is rust free.

There are a couple of airports close by and it is a lovely road trip back from there. I am sure we have a member down that way as well who might be able to help with a collection mission.

I have an Oltcit so I was thinking of others!

That doesn’t look too hopeless for a kit car.

And it could be combined with collecting this:

So please don't start the collection thread without me.

Re the 418 GSD, I can view/collect/store for a bit if anyone is interested as it's not far from where I work.

 

You evil drug pusher....

 

Sadly my 'want' levels do not extend to dirty dirty diesel - mind you we may see a lot more of these types of sales from that there London - hopefully.

Campervan / Barn find / Restoration project / Very Rare

 

s-l1600.jpg

 

This is a rare opportunity to purchase an 'original' 1989 converted Leyland Campervan.

 

It has been off the road & stored in Spain since 2006.

 

Those in the trade will know what a fully restored 1989 Campervan is worth

 

The campervan is advertised elsewhere and may be removed from sale at any time.

 

I somehow miss the term 'unique' in the ad, but I'm pretty sure there is already a huge queue of potential buyers forming,

falling over each other to rehome and lavishly restore this rare investment opportunity.

 

What a weedhead.

PAHOOT!

NO ENGINE, GEARBOX OR PROP SHAFT**!

 

Erm...

 

s-l1600.jpg

 

 

The only reason I bough this car was for the engine & gearbox to fit into my Mk1 Granada, because the Scimitar was at one point some sort of race car, perhaps a track day or hill climb car, I don't really know, but the old guy I got it from had it for years and said it was a pretty rapid car, and clearly the engine has had some work done. 
So the Scimitar is now being sold as a rolling shell without running gear for that reason.

 

Engine rapist.

 

 

I have for sale by separate negotiation, a genuine 46k mile Rover 3.5 V8 engine removed from a P5B Coupe. A friend also has a manual box for sale from an SD1 if you were interested, so the Rover engine which is lighter than the original 3.0 Essex, with a manual box, would be an incredible street sleeper or track car if you wanted to go down that route.

 

That fucked Granada leaves quite a trail of destroyed classics in its wake.

That steering rack is too close to the arms. Must get pretty bad bump-steer.

I genuinely wonder whether there are people who collect old wheelchair haulers.

If so, they're likely to be on here.

Imagine being trapped in a cab with this bloke when you have a stinking hangover

In good working order but slightly damaged as you can see.
A small piece of lens was broken on mine showing white light to the rear. 
My car is a private hire vehicle and I taped over it to look more presentable. I made such a good job of it that i forgot all about it. That is the original tape i put on and jet washed nearly every day.
When my council test came round I remembered it when checking the whole car over.
This would not pass a council test, but is not a mot failure if covered with the appropriate see through red tape.
 
I was quoted £150 by Volvo for a new unit, so this is a bargain if you don't need perfection.
It all works, however I had to swap out the wiring to the marker light (see photo) as the 2nd hand replacement light I found for myself was burnt out. I have left this burnt out piece of wiring in as a pattern.
I have fished out as much lens as I can which will be sent with the unit. A small piece remains inside which someone with more time and patience might be able to get out.
Bulbs included.
