Nice b18ft.. on ebay.. blue with a rebored and uprated volvo engine. Needs head gasket doing. Guy says he will take 1500. Looking at the spec list its worth that in parts. Car up north near morcome.

Sounds like its rusty, not got a straight panel and has a ****ed engine.
Probably only good for parts.
My thoughts also till i saw the pics. If he really is getting those bhp figures it would be rocket. Have to consult with the b18ft guys to see if it possible.Originally Posted by Guybrush

Still cheap with those parts on it
Bump
Pics up now.
Lol. Do you know the seller?
Funnily enough trev. Never met the bloke just rang yhe ebay advert. He seemed like a nice bloke so i said i would link his advert to the forum. Moee chance someone on here buying it for parts than on fleabay.
I somehow doubt all that engine suff, i remember this car back in the day when i was a group thrash at Bruntingthorpe with it and it couldn't keep up with my 160bhp rust bucket of a 5!
T3 turbo on a standard manifold, not so sure considering the standard manifold is T25 flange
Finding them power claims hard to believe considering its still on standard ecu, if it was standalone then maybe
No worries. I just wondered why you were doing him the favour. I'd be careful because if that long list of spec turns out to be utter balls (like so many do), and someone here buys it, you'll wished you hadn't bothered.
If you're sure the spec is accurate then all good of course

Yes. Unite the b18ft brotherhood
He only left the bottom end in the car. Lived round the corner from me.
Theres a few of us up these sides. We should arrange a northwest meet. What you guys say.?
I'm waiting for my shell back from the body shop. When it's built back up I'm up for a meet.
Trev your definitely correct. There's no interior and a few other things missing but the thing is Steve is after a fresh canvas so it's all good

Didn't pay eBay price either
How much you pay? I did ask him but he didn't reply so thought he'd let it go cheap?
