I was asked by Corbs to look at some welding on his car recently and it turns out that extensive rust has been hidden under much filler and bodgery! The ends of the sills are completely gone and so has the arch around the rear quarter on the nearside - I gave up before I dug too deeply on the offside arch. The chassis rails also has some rot near the front...basically the car is going to need a lot more work that it's worth.
With that I am breaking it so if anyone wants any parts please let me know. I'll hopefully be collecting the car today and will get started stripping straight away. The shell will be going to the scrapyard, but everything else is up for grabs.
The car drives brilliantly and the engine & gearbox are very sweet.
I'll post up more details and photos once I get the car, but for now, please let me know if there is anything you are after? I don't know, as yet, the condition of the other body panels because I didn't look that closely at the time (wings, doors etc...) nor the condition of the tyres & other bits but will update once I know more.
The seats will be cleaned prior to selling them...
As some of you will know from a previous MX5 that I broke, I will be selling a complete engine & gearbox conversion package. When I say complete, I do meant comprehensive and COMPLETE!
I will get a video of the engine starting/running and it'll come with everything needed to put into another car (kit car/other vehicle) including the entire loom from the car, all the ancillaries, downpipe, coil pack, fuse boxes etc...
HERE is a LINK to the previous engine conversion package I sold. This will give you some idea of the comprehensive way I do this. Literally, everything needed (and more!) to put into another car....
All parts will be available for collection at Area 52 in Bristol, smaller items I will be willing to post at cost and larger items *may* be able to get transported via Pony Express?
Many thanks for looking...
