Semi-C Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I’m losing the battle of justifying to myself the need for two council lock-ups anymore, especially as only one of them is housing an actual car now.The reality of this realisation is that a whole host of my stuff must be rehomed, thusly I shall post up the woeful, the dire and the gopping for your delectation and potential purchase.Here y’are then: 4 x LS400 (UCF10) 15 inch wheels with good tyres. Bought them to beautify my LS (UCF10) but was bereaved to discover that, being the facelift version, it had larger brakes that require the 16 inch wheels. Ratscocks. Sold 5 x Mk1 Granada Ghia alloys. £50 Ford Type F 4 speed gearbox (removed from a 55k miles, 1975 2000E Cortina) Sold RS2000 exhaust manifold. (Gearstick not included) Sold Mk2 Granada wheel arch panel. Sold Mk3/4/5 Cortina 1600 propshaft. Sold Skizzer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semi-C Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 Hmmm, are the tyres any good on the Lexus wheels? What size are they if so? Just pondering them for the Camry....They’re Dunlop SP Sport tyres with plenty of tread on them. I think* they’re 205/65 15 size (forgive my vagueness)I would have happily used them on my Lexus, sadly I cannot. Almost contemplated sourcing the 1st gen UCF10 brakes/hubs/etc but that’s another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rantingYoof Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I was about to express regret in missing the Lexus wheels/tyres, as mine are rather corroded, but then realised that as I have the 1998 onwards model - presumably with the larger brakes - I would have suffered the same problem as you.

sierraman Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 That RS2000 manifold is silly cheap. Anyone with a 2.0 Pinto would rip your hand off for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SierraMikeHotel Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Remind me of your location please? I usually browse the forum on my phone so don't see the ancillary details. I'll have the ladies bike if it's not a million miles away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semi-C Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 I’m happy that stuff I have no intention of using anymore will be put to use by somebody from this forum. If I was going to be selling my stuff elsewhere then my pricing would be revised. Fanx. rantingYoof and D Spares & Tyres 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You *might* need a 5mm spacer, LS's's's's have quite a high offset for a RWD car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghosty Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 I know someone with a mk1 3.0 Granada Ghia. My mum is in daily contact so I shall see if those wheels are of interest. Semi-C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spottedlaurel Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 You *might* need a 5mm spacer, LS's's's's have quite a high offset for a RWD car. I knew PCD, centre bore etc would be OK, but both are ET45 apparently. Even if there's an issue then the tyres would be of use to me and I'd fit them onto a set of my steels - having to pump up three of them every week gets a bit dull and prevents me using it as much as I should. Anyway, owning a set of wheels might be the first step to Mk1 LS400 ownership...... yes oui si and Semi-C 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skizzer Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 I’d like the Mk2 Granny wheel arch repair panel please! Thanks. Is postage an option or is it collection only?

Semi-C Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 Skizzer, the granada arch is yours. Ta very much. I’m heading along to Past Parts on Tuesday so am more than happy to fetch the panel along with me to take full advantage of Angrydicky’s collection service, if that’s acceptable for all involved? Postage can be an option too if you like. Cheers. Skizzer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
