Guys, I'm thinning the herd at my place. Going from 2.5 minis and a Moke to just one of each. Also getting rid of all the parts that I can. Check out my for sale ads.

Somebody please make me an offer for the whole lot!

Heaps of replies. No surprises lots of people want the 12G940. It isn't $20 sorry...

I will sell these in the following order. Sorry if this p155es anyone off but I'm selling mini parts due to lack of time. Wrapping, packing, travelling and posting take time I don't have sorry:
    Someone wants the lot. One person is considering this
    Someone wants the K +parts +more.
    Someone wants the K +parts. More than one person considering this.
    People who can collect and will pay the posted price. Several people.
    People who buy a bunch of stuff but need postage. Plenty of IMs
    People who buy one or two high dollar items and need postage. Plenty of IMs
    People who buy some bits & bobs and need postage.
    .
    ..
    ...
    People who send me a blunt IM (read rude) with a cut price counter offer and need postage. Yep, plenty of those have rolled in :roll:

Maybe people are on mobile devices and can't decipher my advert. So maybe they aren't being rude. Maybe I'm just a grumpy old pr1ck who expects too much...

I was following instructions and waiting until you were going to sell the parts separately. So, I haven't sent a message like a good boy i am. Let us know when we are allowed to ask about parts. (thumbs up emoji like the cool kids do)

Yep, sorry, I've spent too many years married to a primary school teacher :lol: can't help it!

Hopefully the car and stacks of parts will all go in a big lot fairly soon, then I can be clear about the rest. There is huge interest in the good bits but I want to clear it all out and not be stuck with all the odds and ends.

All good mate. I just wanted to point out that some people should have done the right thing rather than try and grab a bargain...

Great minds think alike, however I still have the thought of calling dibs on the 1275. :twisted:

So far I have had over 70 PMs for the bits. Should have put higher prices on the tachos, 12G940, Cooper S speedo, 850 steering wheel and Cobra seats. OMG there is a line up for that lot.

Also had more than 10 Facebook messages.

With a few people interested in the shell I got everything out of the way. Keeping the Moke and light blue mini. Dark blue will be posted for sale when the other stuff is gone.

Then got the crap out of the way and dragged it close to the edge of the racks:

There's 8 years of dust and gekko sh1t on and in it.

My sister is in town from London so I have been busy doing family stuff the rest of the time.

Several people asking what the shell needs before paint prep so here goes:

Driver's footwell is non-hydro so the ribs don't line up. Cut out and replace with the hydro piece that is now available new.
Battery box has been replaced but 'new' (read old but no holes) one is screwed in not welded. Tidy and re-weld (or not)
Straighten floors from the usual dings a 47 year old car has.
The new front guards have been put on but not aligned too well. They are only MIG spotted in place, not seam or stitch welded.
Grind out the welds between the new front guards and the new front grille panel. See the red circles. At the right of the photo below is the poor alignment of the driver's guard and the grille panel. The inner guard can stay attached to the outer guard so only these 7 welds either side need removal and replacement.

I reckon I could do all the metal work in a weekend.

I have also been asked for more photos so I have added more to here. You can see piles of dirt I have swept up. There are photos of the boot, parcel shelf, roof etc.

Updated list is up in the for sale page but my PMs are overflowing and I have to rush off to school sports. Will clean everything up later today.

Would have been much easier if you advertised the parts when you were ready to sell.

Thanks for the advice Ty but I was aiming to get someone to take the whole lot at once. Second choice was someone to take enough bits to buy a car. An enterprising type could have taken lots of stuff then on-sold the bits that people were desperate for.
