EPIC DEAL FOR ALL OF YOU
Okay today was a revelation. I posted a previous thread of multiple capris going to waste by the sea.
Today I made them all mine for nothing. The owner caved in after a very convincing conversation.
I know that there is a 2.8 a 2.0 and two 1.6 capris. I will upload photos soon.
They're all very rough with rust and some green mould on one or two interiors.
However theyre abundent with original parts as they never got torn down.
You of the forum supplied me with invaluable information directly and indirectly. To which I'm highly greatful. As most people are im not very rich. Free information and effort is more than appreciated by many.
After I have removed the last few parts I need for my 1.6 laser from one of these capris i will break and give away all the remaining parts to forum members. I dont mind how big a part is if you pay the postage (from the highlands) you get the bits.
Thats my thankyou as they're no use to me and I'm not looking for profit. I hope this goes to help those like me who are in need without a budget.
It would be pretty awesome if after this I could somehow get to post up pictures on my posts like paying members do I'm too skint lol.

Re: EPIC DEAL FOR ALL OF YOU
Think what you're doing is a marvellous gesture. Please pm me a price to post a pair of 2.8 struts complete with discs and calipers.
And you don't have to pay to post pics.....use photobucket or similar, there are instructions on how to post photos in a sticky thread.

Re: EPIC DEAL FOR ALL OF YOU
I suspect this will be a very busy thread.
I will photo what is there tomorow I honestly havent got a clue what is there atm or what is even viable.
My brain melted when I heard the "free go ahead" haha
I hope this inspires others to break for free.
I suspect then not so many resto projects would go to waste then due to lack of budgets.

Re: EPIC DEAL FOR ALL OF YOU
Can I just note (and I’m sorry for legitimate requests) don’t just request parts in bulk that you know you can sell for your own profit.
I'm not daft, I've been on the hunt for parts myself and I'm very well aware I’ve a thousand or so quid’s of parts here at the bottom most price. I know the value of some specific parts even though they're free also.
I'm doing this for those that haven’t got bugger all, yet still want that dream.
Please don’t try to cheat the offer. Just parts YOU ACTUALLY NEED. Otherwise you will just cheat those being honest.
Sorry if thats quite rugged.

Holy Mary Mother of God....!!
Any of them have a decent original Parcel shelf?
Are you sure none of them are salvageable? It depresses me seeing them going to the scrapper.
Anyway Shine on you crazy diamond.

Re: EPIC DEAL FOR ALL OF YOU
whoa whoa whoa lol i get yr all wanting parts.
I would give everyone what they need if i could.
Please let me get photos on here first before you ask your parts.
I WILL answer all emails a yes or no after photos are up. Because I'm sad and have time for that and I cant tolerate ignoring people.
Just give me a chance haha.

Re: EPIC DEAL FOR ALL OF YOU
What a find, Would you be able to help out with some front head lights (which are going rusty) and some good rubber weather strips that sit against the driver and passenger windows (which are perishing). if so depending where you are could possibly pick up. Many thanks.
