Having stripped a few cars now it doesnt take long when you have the right tools. As said we stripped the MR2 in under 8 hours without breaking anything other than the front screen.

As you guys dont need the shell  we can simply cut the front cross member out and bring the motor and trans out in one piece. etc

I **should** be going over to costco this week so will get a barrel of fuel then, also Dean - pick you up at yours - what time?

Edge - J13 is easiest, follow A421 into / through MK - and we work out a place to meet up!!

Anyone got a digi camcorder we could set up on a tripod on the mezz and recorde the destruction

I will grab a load of bags and empty boxes from work along with a few markers so stuff can be labeled as its taken off

[EDGE]

if there's that many of us i should probably bring some tools, we'll only run out otherwise and nothings worse tan looking for a screwdriver/socket !!!

like i said though, let me know a price before i start to vulture otherwise it maybe awkward after the event..... id rather know a price before I start as if I cant afford the parts Im sure Gemma will want me to fit the poxy kitchen sink !!!

I guess Rob is doing the pricing, or Dean?

[EDGE]

[55starchief]

To give you some idea

Complete interior is worth about £250-300

Engine and trans £700

Rear axle £150

Things like ac comp,power steering,alt,brake booster go for about £15 each

Front glass if taken out with out braking is worth about £100

Doors are worth about £50 a side and the rear bumper £30

If the tyres are good you could see £25 a corner if they are 17"

also Dean - pick you up at yours - what time?

Dunno.  Rob's kindly offered, too . . . Group expedition ???

Quoting: 55starchief

To give you some idea

Those items alone are more then the price paid for the car.

As I said, I'm in for half as the engine and trans is half a car, IMO . . . Of course, that said, I'm skint so if any of that can be off-set by selling other bits and bobs, then cool.

As for the rear axle - I'd like this but it isn't needed . . . we could try selling it first . . . see if we get any takers . . . ???

[FUBAR]

I can probably come along too if you like, even if its just to cook food

Ahh, oh the Saturday, then ?



What exactly is happening each day . . . I thought we were beginning the strip-down Sunday as that's when Rob is off of work ?



Has it been confirmed when it's being delivered ???

Thats wot i thought??

Ryan - u want lift as well if i get the other row of seats in the van?

[55starchief]

As far as i know the car is arriving saturday. Im gonna guess that the guy will want to get it delivered earlier rather than later in the day

Sunday is a dead day as its the MKB meet in the afternoon
