V8 Wanted

[V6GTO]

Does anyone know a good scource for an alloy V8? I want one as a piece of furniture so it can be bu66ered, and it does'nt matter about ancilleries, but it needs to be cheap. M.

There's a Lamborghini Miura block for sale in the classifieds.

Don't know if the bores are large enough to hold a wine bottle though?

Pop- down your local scrappy and see if they've got any old V8s - most will have a buggered range rover there...

This is on ebay:

I will take the gearbox and transfer box of your hands, 50-50 split.

I have s Tuscan Speed Six cylinder head for sale ( Cheap!! ) if you think you can make anything out of it?

[v8 jago]

How much are you willing to pay !!

[V6GTO]

How much is a bu66ered block worth?

I want it for this:-

Get in touch with this guy:-

Ask for Steve, i'm sure he said he had some old blocks he wanted rid of a while back. As an indication of price, I bought a 3.5 V8 short engine a while back that just needed a hone and I paid £25 for it, so a scrap block is virtually worthless

P.S. Why not make a matching footrest out of my Tuscan cylinder head!!!

I bought a complete all alloy BMW V12 for £10.51 on e-bay..... turned out to be a good-un though, but something to think of if I ever torch one.

Andycanam, how's the F40 coming along? (I'm a mate of Simon)

AndyS2, thanks for that mate, a deal has been done!

[eliot]

Well i now have a slightly fire damaged rover v8 and gearbox sat in my garage now.
You can make a coffee table and a sofa out the dam thing - becuase i dont want it.

Sounds like there might be a storey behind that, do tell!
