It's here :up: looking in more or less the same condition that it left ... I was worried that the Magnex and the headunit would have gone awol but they're still there.

no idea what the engineer meant saying the engine sounded rough - it sounds peachy - one of the pulleys (powersteering pump more than likely) is rubbing, but that's it ... sounds pukka ... boy have I missed the sound of that Remus/ Magnex combo ... :lmao:

[HoldenV8]

James can you pm me your details and let me know when its convenient to collect, saturdays(next 2 are ok atm) are best for us as kids have sports on sundays.

What condition are wheels in James ? tyres and that .

[uglymonkey]

tyres are a non issue - fronts don't have much tread and one has a slow puncture - the rears would last maybe another thousand miles, not brilliant so I've not mentioned them ... put it this way, If I was buying the wheels myself, I'd be putting tyres on all four as soon as possible

[blippi]

how much 4 the passenger side mirror (electric i'm hoping) plus the plastic trim that goes on the inside behind the mirror? £20 inc postage ok?

I have a feeling I'll get these out in any case - theres a couple of people after the cam covers so it would make sense and be a fairly straight forward job now that the inlet plumbing is already off.

I have the original 2.5 cams to go back in and can nick the plastic cam covers off the cav motor I have on the stand for the time being.

:up: got them, just you n Jimbob to actually send stuff out now ... then pull the other bits people are waiting on ... cams etc ...

I'm in Lowestoft if you want the wheels ... um, nowhere near Hull I'm afraid ...

Yeah sadly nowhere on route either. How much do you want for the alloys themselves and maybe i can use one of the alloy wheel courier services if you can bubble wrap them up or something?

Then the motor'll be stripped so's it's in easily heftable bits to chuck into the back of the stripped motor, source myself a couple of basic/ scrapppy 5 stud wheels and then wheel it out the front to be collected by mr scrapman.

Cam covers for Bumpkin Dave, and GSi cams for carlos in that clean, oil soaked pillowcase :up: Couple of other bits held back for cav too. :up:

Gutted for you pal
I loved this car too in fact i moulded my car on this one ( Now have some parts ;) )
Still loads of parts left on it bud. When you calling the scrap man?
Must try beat him to it :think

[uglymonkey]

subframe is back on, thanks Dave/ Lee ...

interior is now full, and I mean FULL of various V6age, CXE and XXE ... block, pistons, auto boxe ... etc etc etc ... old spare tyres ... everything else that was pulled off the motor but which wasn't sold ...

I've hung on to one of the Sri's heads for a laugh - I'll polish it up and hang it on a wall, and a piston from the old CXE I had on the stand.

just need to get myself two 5 stud wheels from the scrappy and then the scrapman come come and take it away, nothing (worthwhile) left from it after Dave's visit ... save maybe just the front and rear calipers and carriers I have in the garage in gase anyone wants to do a big disk conversion on their Cavs ...

[HoldenV8]

Almost gone then James, don't suppose you still have the clock face surround...and did you manage to find the grey plug bit i'm after for the Mid.

[uglymonkey]

Titanium surround went to a chap who had the entire titanium interior ... your plug is sat in a bubble wrap envelope downstairs, all addressed and ready to go ... with about 12" of loom :up: :D

[HoldenV8]

Cheers James...will :beer::beer::beer:do as a payment
