Has someone writter GAY on the doors??
burgo
07-01-05, 06:31 PM
lol no its not gay its a spax sticker. the shell has gone to mr scrappy man, only cost me ?20 to get rid :), so in total this car cost me ?50. the 1L shell i am already making into a gsi. only reason i got the gte was to strip it of good parts before it died. as to wether it has a cam in it i dont know, all i know is ill be building a turbo lump out of it :)

errr wait a min... ?20 to get rid!

we got given ?20 to get rid of this gsi... stripped the wheels/engine/other bits off it.. took it to the scrappy along with the remains of the red one and he gave us ?30 for the weight!!!

burgo
07-01-05, 06:48 PM
yeah because theres alot of weight there, and the only reason it was ?20 was cos it was a 40 mile round trip for him for a bare shell
Ste_Nova
07-01-05, 07:08 PM
the gsi is bare except the rear tyres!
Will
07-01-05, 07:17 PM

gone are the days where you get paid for scrapping a car. in england you have to pay now its the other way round

guess its still old skool in wales

lol
burgo
07-01-05, 07:32 PM
they take them for free if its a whole car and you can get about ?30 if you go and way it in yourself
Mike.
07-01-05, 07:49 PM

i got my red nova towed away to scrapyard for free today, then went to collect the alloys off it, left it outside the scrapyard dropped down only the chassis. Scrappy man then came out on his forklift and went straight thru the windscreen with the forks and off it went :lol:
