theremm Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Only issue is that they are cut pile, as loop pile material isn't available in South Africa. If you're OK with that, I can ask for a price on a second set. Yeah if that isn't too much trouble cant promise anything but would appreciate it if you could. Am in the market for a carpet kit currently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classicman Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 The motor is now assembled, mated to the box and installed, happy days! The guys are running behind schedule as the car is supposed to ship this week. They tell me it will be ready next week. Hmmm, time will tell.

chris240 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Nick, I noticed youve listed it for sale, "roughly" what sort of coin do think it will sell for ? (That motor is the bees knees !) Classicman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
