In Greek mythology, a phoenix or phenix (Greek: φοῖνιξ phoinix) is a long-lived bird that is cyclically regenerated or reborn. Associated with the sun, a phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor.

 

So from the ashes or parts of Purple Rain she will be reborn !

 

May the new build thread begin.

You'll make most of that (if not all of it) back Lee, You have a queue out the door for parts off both your cars. When you getting your new machine?? I'm kicking myself that I didn't take the blue Targa's:thumbup1:

Sounds fair :)

yeh,

 

I pre agreed with myself that anything under 2k was ok, so that's great.

 

I can easily sum up over 5k of parts some I will use and the rest sell on.

 

Sounds fair :)

Glad you got a good result in the end Lee, just got to wait for the cheque now i guess :thumbup1:

Blimey Lee you have a result there, just need someone myself :), who i'll state is a lorry driver of eastern origin and whom i don't know :shifty:, to go down the side of mine when i had to pull over because i have a.......aheeerm..........engine problem :oops:.

 

Very pleased how it's all turned out for you :thumbup1:.

anyone heard of gmax alloys ?

 

wanting to keep within a budget I seen these for just over £500

 

I know they are cheap alloy but I like the style of them.

 

Think they would look good on a Zed Lee:)

They remind me of Richards alloys

 

 

 

And this one

I like them, I've kinda decided when I get my next 300 I'll be putting these on

 

 

19 Inch Calibre Spur 8.5 front 9.5 rear and only £500 a set. Cheap but quite nice and not a million miles off what you've posted.

Well done, makes a change to hear good news regarding insurance valuation.

Well done definatley gonna need a big workshop area to strip down and rebuild both cars and mine mate lol, I'm still searching for us and I've got feelers oot.

Oh Leeee-eee:

 

 

I still love them but costs near three times the amount.

i'm looking too.

 

prefer one with a stand.

 

Actually what we need is a full on walk in garage.

....and worth every damned penny! There's no compassion between a quality forged wheel and a Chinese made monoblock. :)

 

Stuff like this appears on Japanese Yahoo Auctions - mind you, I searched for a good few years before my BBSs came up! :lol:

Works out about £1500
