Ok as I will now be emigrating to NZ in November I have to think about getting rid of my beloved Raider. Have owned the car for about 2 and a bit years as have done lots of work on it whilst keeping it on the road but unfortunatly never got it 100% finished!
As it stands the exhaust is blowing at the bottom of the down pipe as it 21/2" and the exhaust is 2". Not a major problem and if some one was seriously interested then I could get this sorted.

Here is a link to my project thread. http://www.rtoc.org/boards/showthread.php?t=24996 can easily see alot of work has gone into this car.

Right I'll start with the body work.

Can only be described as tatty! But she has had a new sill on the drivers side and the rear half of the sill on the passenger side replaced as the front part was good. Both jacking points have been done, one with a genuine renault replacement the other has been fabricated by the knob at the local garage and im not 100% happy with it! Alos has some small dents on the front wings

There is rust around the front windscreen and some on the wheel arches in the boot.

The paint job is not the best, somebody has done a quick job on it and hasnt actually put enough paint on and on the right day at the wrong angle you can see the primer on the doors.

Interior is good although some one has cut a square out of the carpet below the drivers seat????

The engine is where I have spent most of my time as I like them to really shift :)

Engine spec

Lightened and balanced knife edge crank
Lightned and balance con rods
flat top pistons
Vernier pully, 285 cam
Big valve head
piper valve springs
Rebuilt about 5k ago by well known rtocer
9 slot bbm flywheel
Volvo clutch
tubular manifold
AFR Aem gauge
external waste gate with screamer pipe
New T28 turbo with 0.49 rear (Spools from 3k +) makes a lovely chirp
Front mount intercooler
50mm alloy rad
Rejetted carb
Alloy catch tank
oil pressure gauge
scoff rear engine mount
Amex rev limiter!
About all I can remember for now! Sure theres more though!

Also on polybushes on the front, green stuff pads all round, 2 reconditioned rear calipers.

So really its a car thats quite up together but needs paint work sorting a the exhaust! Kept standard looking but with some fun under the bonnet!

The cars stands me at about £2500 so will hold out for this money, if I dont get it I will look at stripping the engine bay and selling the shell complete with interior etc.

I *could potentially* be interested in the shell.
