scrapped. delete please

Post by valman » 05 Sep 2011 01:44 pm

hi there, unfortunately to college being pissy about me leaving my car there for almost a year now (which is fair enough really), it has to go :( its far from complete, but i cant imagine it needs much doing to make it road legal, someone with the bits and knowledge can probably get this thing on the road in a couple of weekends time. if all goes how it should, the car will come with no gearbox so will need to be trailered away.
this is it in it's current state:

its had both of the sills done, jsut some rot to sort in the boot area and thats it structure wise. the "build" thread (if you can call it that haha) can be found in the general discussion topic

pains me to do this but i simply cannot keep this car, so come pikc up a project for £100 quid, or the scrap man gets it in a weeks time

PM for any questions
cheers

here is a link to the thread: http://www.volvo300mania.com/forum-uk/v ... &start=180 from the stage it all went downhill. made me quite sad reading through it all again and to see what it was like this time last year compared to what it is now :(
but i cant realistically "keep" it for a year untill i can work on it in my own house and cant afford the cost to get it trailered to wales atm so it has to go unfortunately

let me know how it goes TJ

cheers

Yeah it'd be a real shame to let it go to scrap, but I'm sure thats the last thing you'd want.

C'mon guys someone's after a project!!!!

Unfortunately I'm after a jump in and go job. GLWS mate

cheers, yeah i really dont want to get rid of it ever, as it was my proper first car and the sentimental value of it to me is enormous but needs must and all of that, im surprised at the lack of interest really because the amount of people that buy these purely for drifting or whatever, this is an ideal candidate but everyone seems to want to buy a minter then ruin it.

good luck finding a jump in and go garth, i've noticed a massive lack of the 300 series for sale in the past months :( which is why i ended up with a micra and not another

If you still have it in a month im actually tempted man... if i can get some funds im tempted by renting a garage local and getting a project... idk though :)

Shame you need it gone :( Cant you store it at Luciens/Marcuses in Corsham till you move house?
