Garage clearout
GeoffT - 30/3/11 at 10:10 AM

Time to try and make some space in my garage so a few items up for grabs. Collection only for these items I'm afraid, but that can be from Bracknell, one of the Newlands meets or the Stoneleigh show.

I've tried to be very fair with the pricing, but if you think I've got it wrong by all means try an offer, I won't be offended (much).

This also coincides with my first ever attempt to post pics on locostbuilders, so if I cock up please be gentle with me.... Pics are in photo archive if needed.

Here we go,

1 - Pair of unused brake disks 240mm, 48mm offset, 4x108. I think possibly of Peugeot origin, handy for that rear disk conversion? £15

2 - Escort mk2 wheel with usable tyre. Free to collector.

3 - Xflow stainless 4-2-1 exhaust. Originally a Caterham item I think, the outlet angle has been modified slightly to suit a standard width locost. £30

4 - A selection of alternators from k series engines. All working to the best of my knowledge. From L-R £5, £10, £15, or £25 for the lot.

5 - 32DGAV carb & manifold removed from a 1600 xflow GT spec engine. In excellent clean condition, £30.

GeoffT - 30/3/11 at 10:18 AM

Damn, it's obviously convinced that's a Pinto starter, I'm guessing I've got two pics in the archive with the same title.

You all know what one looks like anyway....

myke pocock - 30/3/11 at 10:30 AM

I would take the carb and manifold but only if you are able to post. See what you think and PM me the total cost and your address for payment if you could do that.


Daddylonglegs - 30/3/11 at 10:45 AM

I'm intrested in the Sierra M/C chap - posted?


montythemole - 30/3/11 at 10:49 AM

Does the exhaust manifold bring the exhaust out the side of the car for a side mounted silencer? The xflow on the Dutton has a normal under car system and it's limiting the ride height as seen here:


(will also need to sort the sump as well of course!)


GeoffT - 30/3/11 at 10:52 AM

I'm really trying to avoid getting involved with p&p, but I'll check out the likely cost and get back to you both.


GeoffT - 30/3/11 at 10:55 AM

Yes, it's a side exit manifold. It fits a locost perfectly but would almost certainly need modding to fit the Dutton.


montythemole - 30/3/11 at 11:09 AM

Because a Duttons ugly?

Any chance you could measure from engine face of manifold to centre line of outlet please?


g60_edge - 30/3/11 at 11:18 AM

can i take the Nippon Denso alternator please
can pick up
thanks
Alex


GeoffT - 30/3/11 at 11:36 AM

Do I detect a slght oversenstivity there............

The measurement you require is around 17".

No I'm well aware they're the ugly duckling of the sevenesque world! Even I sometimes catch it from odd angles and throw up in my mouth a little bit....

Will go have a measure regards the 17".


Confused but excited. - 30/3/11 at 12:49 PM

Hi Geoff, if montythemole doesn't want the exhaust manifold, can I have second dibs please.
It's too far for me to collect but I will happily pay the postage.
U2U sent.


GeoffT - 30/3/11 at 01:16 PM

Looks safe to say then that item 3 (xflow ex manifold) is now sold.


GeoffT - 30/3/11 at 03:34 PM

Item 7 (Sierra m/cyl) now SOLD


GeoffT - 30/3/11 at 09:01 PM

Item 8 (Ford m/cyl) now sold.


GeoffT - 31/3/11 at 12:11 PM

Item 5 (32DGAV carb and manifold) now sold.


Cheffy - 31/3/11 at 12:47 PM

Hi,

If for any reason Alex decides he doesn't want the Nippon Denso alternator I'd be interested. Can also collect.

Cheers,

Martin.

Ok Martin, noted.


GeoffT - 4/4/11 at 03:57 PM

Just an unashamed bump really, but as mentioned try an offer if you fancy anything.


James - 9/4/11 at 07:11 PM

Earth to Geoff!

Come in please... you time is up!

montythemole - 19/4/11 at 07:55 AM

Belated thanks for the manifold, not fitted yet but using hi-tech 'holding it in place' technology looks the business. Now to sort a side mounted silencer and a shortened sump and I can have the Dutton in the weeds.


loggyboy - 19/4/11 at 08:09 AM

I know most have probably looked and found the starter picture in the archiove, but for those who have, for some reason the pinto starter is saved under /gallery/4DSCF0043.JPG, and the other pic is under /uploads/4DSCF0043.JPG


GeoffT - 19/4/11 at 08:09 AM

That should be a nice straightforward fitting job, looks like it's found a new home....

Geoff.

That was referring to the exhaust manifold post, but thanks loggyboy for the starter picture correction.
