OK You would be daft to bid on this and pick it up but bloody stupid not to you could sell the T body for a good price and almost make you money back OK I'll shut up now

[Manky Monkey]

Git.

[panthershaun]

I would bid on it myself but I do know of one sitting near me maybe I shouldn't have posted the link and purchased it myself god what should I do??

[panthershaun]

Git.

I do try

Seriously, it would be a better bet than the T, and once you have it on the road you can do almost want you want to it

OK I'm going to bed now, will leave you alone

[Manky Monkey]

Still a git. Makes sense, which is the annoying bit. Still 2 days left on it, so hopefully it'll sky rocket beyond temptation by then. Would be cool though wouldn't it -a Manky Monkey Motors truck. Hmmm.

[panthershaun]

Thought you would be in bed by now , yes it is a silly idea, but aren't all the best ones stupid
if you built a rod truck you could sell the fiesta and have a really cool everyday driver, but I'm really not helping am I.
I will retire into the background and let the ebay auction run its course, time will be the decider.

[Manky Monkey]

I hate you, you know that don't you. Wanna buy a Fiesta?

[panthershaun]

I just want to be loved fancy meeting for a beer soon ?, don't panic I will bring the wife along

[Manky Monkey]

I'll PM my mobile number.

Was just passing, thought Id throw this in there to think about!
And if you sold the T body for a couple o hundred notes you would be up by 100 quid. Flog the van next and its pretty much paying for itself!

Now that pic makes me feel old!  My first car was one of those (well mine was an Anglia) but without the mods of course!
I was 17 at the time (it's while ago) and it went like a rocket!  Well it would do 70 which was pretty good as my previous transport was a Honda C50.  But when it started pumping oil out on top of the block it seemed a good time to part company so I chopped it in for a Moggy 1000 which was quite sophisticated in comparison!

I'd have loved to have my old black sit-up-and-beg looking like that one tho!

[panthershaun]

Just imagine that with a pickup bed and MMM logo on the side. would look pretty cool

Spoke to Brock by email last night & he's talked me out of buying the Pop bodyshell. He's right, it'd be a major project & Ii just can't take on any more at the moment. Can't afford the ones I've got. It's still on Ebay, (the sale ends at 9.15 this evening), for 101 quid, so I shan't torment myself by watching it!
So, I've decided to offload my hotrod project. Just can't afford to do it & it's sat there, in various garages, not moving, just gathering dust & getting in the way -a bit like Flap. As Brock said, I'd be better off flogging all the bits & buying something drivable.
Anyone want to buy this lot:
Pop Browns fibreglass '27 T roadster body, unused.
Basic steel box section chassis to suit.
5 core radiator.
Fibreglass rad shell.
4 litre straight 6 AJ6 Jag engine, (was running fine when it came out of the car but been stood outside for a year).
3 speed auto gearbox.
Part stripped Sherpa van to provide front beam axle with disc brakes, rear axle, prop & steering box etc.
Pair of repro Austin Chummy seat bases.
New Morris Oxford speedo + spare.
Morris Minor banjo type steering wheel.
Set of 4 steel black taxi cab wheels, (worn tyres fitted), to suit Sherpa bolt pattern.

Think that's the lot. I want to get rid of all this on Ebay as a job lot as soon as I've got some photos of the body. Anyone got any idea what it's worth?
