Title: Red or Dead
Post by: VAN059 on August 12, 2010, 08:42:37 AM
Hi,

Was interested to know if anyone, preferably within a couple hundred ks of Brisbane, would have a spare red motor they're willing to sell? Ideally would love a 179, or higher, worked slightly and mated to a 4 or 5sp box. I know it narrows the availabilty somewhat, but you never know whats in peoples garages gathering dust.  :)

Cheers
Marc

PS. If a motor eventuates, I may have a grey with twin strombergs, extractors, finned tappet and 3sp for sale.

Hey Marc,

I've got a 186 I bought a while ago. Motor only with a box of bits including extractors. Bottom end is supposed to have been done and never run but I havnt pulled it apart to look. $150 will give me my money back if you or anyone else is interested. I'm in Kingaroy.

Cheers

Mark
