As some of you may know, I bought Goldie just before Christmas , mainly for swiping her engine. I've still to do this, but I need to get rid ASAP.

There has however been a problem :embarasse I had lined up Goldie for donation to someone else, but they've just texted me to tell me they aren't interested anymore. /wall

Therefore, I offer the car to you lot - Minus engine, otherwise complete and original, and with a lot of history from the years. It's a 28 year old japanese car, so don't expect perfection, but she'll make a lovely project for someone - RWD Turbo action anyone? /Steeringw .

Therefore, to save Goldie from the Scrapyard, the first person to come with a trailer (she's SORN and will have no engine!) can take her away. :thumbsup:

(And if anyone fancies helping me remove an engine from her first, that would be good!!! Anyone got an engine crane?!/help )

No-one interested in a bit of retro-hooliganism then?! :embarasse

I'm giving it till the end of February before I part her out and get the shell towed...... :inquisiti

BUMP!

Only 18 days left! Remeber, you collect - Add lunatic engine - the rest is up to you!!

The gearbox is designed to fit the 4G32 - So a 4G37 or maybe even an early 4G63 (the '63 was based on the '32) should fit - and if not then I'm sure a RWD Pajero, Starion, Shogun, cordia or similar should be a suitable donor.

Just think of the Fun you could have at the 'pod - a 4 door '70s saloon (which in FULL trim only weighs 975kg), with a turbo engine in it......:evil2: /Steeringw

And all you pay for is the petrol to get to KieranCorp Towers and to trailer Goldie back!!:2thumbsup

WITHDRAWN FROM OFFER.

Sorry to anyone who was considering taking the car, but I have now decided to part her out and tow the shell to the scrapyard - She's got too many useful bits for me to consider letting her go. /yes
