Crazy circumstances with this car is the fact that it's twice only narrowly
missed being scrapped as the wrong owners had it and couldn't afford to
get key things sorted with it or fund it's voracious fuel appetite.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with the body, exhaust, rams, spheres
or engine etc but for a tiny lift of lacquer on the grille and no wheel bolt
key to renew the front tyres. Sensible miles too; I'm not in a desperate
hurry to rush this one onto the road mind as this will be a long term
keeper. I mean nobody would even give it a second's time as it's got
a lovely tilt/slide sunroof and that's a no-no for everyone!! :lol: ;)

Originally it sold on eBay over the Xmas holiday period a few years back
to my pal who's a keen Cit fan and he never got round to doing anything
about it as his new business venture drew all his time/effort/money. His
loss and actually I freelanced my designer skills to own it as payment!!

I can run over to you with my engine crane in a Xant estate...
How I missed this I'm not sure.. Yes the turbo, gearbox and drive shafts are still there, exhuast is off but in good nick so that's for sale if anyone wants it..

How long do you reckon it'd take you to remove the engine (with us helping of course), the car's not in an ideal place but you can get to the front of it at least..!

If it's still roughly as it was Dom, last time you published photos of it (i.e. front end bodywork dismantled) then the engine and gearbox can be out in an easy couple of hours.
