most people on here know me and my car by now

unfortunatly on the way back from the supercar sunday show i blew the head gasket

now i have the dilema of what to do with it now

as it happens i was actually contenplating selling it this year,due to financial circumstances and kids wanting to go to university etc etc.,but i just couldnt bring myself to actually put it up for sale.

so

 

option 1

strip it all down, sort the head gasket out and rebuild it (cheapest)

 

option 2

get a replacement engine and swap all the parts and bling over (easiest)

 

option 3

send it to a garage,to sort it out (zed specialist) (dearest)

 

option 4

sell it as it is to someone for a bargain,to which they wiil eventually end up with an award winning show car quite cheaply,after spending a bit of time on repairing the engine (give up altogether)

 

 

in my opinion

i really dont know what to do for the best and would appreciate your input

 

im not really mechanically minded to take on such a big job as that, although i have been offered help to sort it by other members locally

i also dont have a lot of spare time with my job

if i did sort it then i would probably run it for a while and then sell it at a good price anyway

ii would consider letting it go as it is if some one is interested in taking it on to get a top class zed, and as i would need another car ,i may also take a part-ex

so if anyone is interested, then please pm me and let me know before i decide what option to take

 

cheers

Can get them for around £55 for a full top end gasket set and then around another £90 for a cometic head gasket(cos the one in the other set isnt that good)

Then be another £100 for both heads pressure testing and skimming.
