Well today was the day that the engine was coming out and it happend
Started off at mine all nice and clean waiting to be picked up!


Few weeks back i spend a few hours tidying the engine bay up from all the dodgy wires ect as i thought i would be keeping as i got pissed about so much for parts ect so this is how the engine looked today

Now down at the garage getting ripped apart by me and a mate










Thursdays plan is to get the car back upto mine and strip the rest thats left then scrap the shell, The floor ect is very clean and solid was shocked at how clean it was, at some point in its life its been in a front end smash and hasnt been repaird to a high standard so its better off at the scrappys

Engine & Gearbox, Exhaust, Intercooler and all the pipework and custom loom have been sold 
I had priced them at a silly price thinking it wouldnt sell but it ended up selling So im happy! 
Ive also sold bonnet, rear axle and a few other little parts just waiting on collection 
Ive pretty much made all my money back on what i got the car for so im happy plus i still have a good load to be sold on that will give me even extra cash to play with
