I make that around £250 in parts, assuming things like hubs and lamps are pairs. Shell looks shonky as hell, seam welding is toss so thats wirth about £100 tops if its rust free.
Good luck finding that stuff for those prices RJ. Most bits usualy sell for a tenner, Even more so if your in a hurry.

rj if u come to sell anyparts let me know i like ur prices
im intrested aswell rj, just tell me a job lot price and ill have it all :)
You guys pay over the odds then. I'm merely quoting prices I've seen stuff sell for on ebay, and that was being generous. I've seen bonnets and bootlids sell for 99p more often than not. Passenger doors are worthless too, I've got a totally rust free one sat in my garage and I couldn't even give it away. Same goes for dashboards, dials, etc - the fact he doesn't specify if they're decent ones makes me think poverty spec - again, I couldn't give away my GTE dash, chucked out my old 1.2 dials etc.

That doesn't make sense - if you're in a hurry to sell stuff, you usually let it go cheaper. Or do you mean in a hurry to buy?
Most of that stuff would sell for £5. Id love a bonnet for £5 but i had to pay £15 to get my decent one.
You would be lucky to get the drivers door for £40, barly seem them under £50-60. Your door was matt black, not the most ideal colour.
2 boots £5 each 0
2 bonnets £5 each 0
4 doors Assuming rust free and for 3dr, £40ea drivers, £5ea passenger 60 each IMO
all glass x2 £10ea 0
dash £zip 10
interior cards and seats £zip 0
1.2 and 1.4sr looms £zip 0
nova hubs £5ea 15
Corsa Hubs £5ea 15
Gmax suspension £30 if springs + dampers 40
Standard Suspension £zip 20
F10 box 4speed £zip 10
F10 box 5speed £10 10
2x F13 box £10ea 10
6 shafts £zip depends what they are from
lamps what, street lamps? Headlamps? Foglamps? Rear lamps? Assuming headlamps, £5ea 10
clocks x2 £zip presuming they are bog standard worthless, gsi/sri/ go for good money
Front bumper Assuming poverty spec as he's not said otherwise, so £zip 0
x2 Rear bumper £zip 0
x2 front grills (mk2) £5ea 10
20 wheels £zip depends if they are 13" steels, if so 0 anything bigger might be worth a few bob
1600 8v head £zip
1200 8v engine £zip
1400 8v engine on injection with 4 branch and k&n £20 for the exhaust, the rest £zip id say 50 for the whole engine.
I make that around £250 in parts, assuming things like hubs and lamps are pairs. Shell looks shonky as hell, seam welding is toss so thats wirth about £100 tops if its rust free.
i have added in my prices in green, still under pricing i think. and postage would be on top, i say if you can get it for 500 it would be a struggle to make a profit.

You would be lucky to get the drivers door for £40, barly seem them under £50-60. Your door was matt black, not the most ideal colour.
I bought a pair of minty mint doors with window frames and E/W motors for £40, as in £20 each. You just have to know where to look. And yes, they were advertised lol As for my door, most buyers would probably be looking to repaint anyway.
Bonnet - go look on ebay. There's a few at 99p with 0 bids, and completed auctions sees only two having sold, both mint, one for £10 and one for £6. Plus a whole host unsold at various prices. If you want one the right colour, you'd only need to wait for one to turn up (and there's a good probability the one on that ad is the wrong colour for most people anyway).
The 1.4 engine, £50? Maybe if it was MPi, but an SPi or carb engine you're having a laugh. You could buy a 1.6 for that.
Standard suspension £20?!
And who wants a 4 speed gearbox? You'd only get scrap value on that.
As for the wheels, trim, dials etc - I've assumed its all nothing special otherwise he'd have said "set of 15" alloys, set of steels... 6-clock dials..." etc.
I got my minty fresh bootlid for 99p with spoiler! RJ's prices are about right if your willing to shop around/be patient
All Jacks prices are near correct except for F10 4sp boxes,autograss class 2 racers will pay alot for these
