BBWF online autojumble - list your parts here!
Discussion
Great suggestion from Gunmetal. This thread is for people to post details of spares they have for sale. Deals can be done online, and the cash handed over at BBWF direct for the parts. That way, we're not violating Ted's posting rules, and we don't have to cart stuff home again from BBWF that hasn't sold. Maybe the Mod's could sticky this one if it looks like it's going to be a workable idea?
To get the ball rolling, I have a wooden rim alloy three spoke Momo steering wheel for sale, fit's the earlier TR7 columned wedges, not sure about rover columns but probably fits those too. £15 ono.

Hmmm... a bit premature for the BBWF, and not enough info yet for a formal advert (sorry Ted!) but one of my workmates has some garage equipment to sell... here's the story.
He has a Corrado G60, fancied doing a major strip and rebuild (bare metal respray, new suspenders, blueprinted engine, that sort of thing
).
He began acquiring tools and equipment and then found he couldn't rent anywhere to do the work, for a price worth paying, and can't do it at home as he hasn't the space.
So he's decided to leave the car as is for now, hence the stuff he bought has to go.
I bought an engine stand off him: brand new Clarke CES750 thing, still in box, never assembled.
He also has a Clarke 1-ton folding crane (not sure which one, their website shows two and it's stored in his mate's garage so we can't check at the mo) but he's looking for £100 for it. Used once, to pull his mates 1300 engine out.
As well as that, there's some flat-pack shelving (Clarke again), steel frame with 'wood' shelving... from my browse of the MM website and his description it must be the CS5150 or CS5350 series but again, can't check at the mo. He has no price in mind as yet.
Finally, a mechanic's tool chest. Now I reckon it's Clarke's CFS300 series, but not sure which one. From his description it sounds like the CFS312 (12 drawers) but he doesn't recall it costing the £140 that the MM site says. No idea of price as yet... but bear in mind I gave him £30 for the engine stand that costs £47 inc. VAT, and that he's keen to shift them, bargains could be had.
So: subject to him getting his act together and telling me exactly which parts these are, and me putting up a proper ad, is anyone provisionally interested? It'd have to be collection-only... or maybe I could step in and deliver if it's to somewhere I happen to be near. Items are located in Middlesbrough.

Hair of the Hog (Hog's back brewery)
I only have room for a Gin and Tonic on mine!
I have some 350i parts that I won't be needing...
a lattice wheel (nimbus grey)
3 wheel centres with logo (but in poor condition)
a trailing arm (rhs), c/w bearing, driveshaft, and bottom link.
a rear stub axle (ideal if you want to upgrade the driveshaft as the bearing cup holes got a bit damaged)
a bonnet (diamond white I think)
a diff carrier (trailing arm)
a driveshaft (350i size)
and last but not least
a new unused factory-supplied rear hood in black mohair (fits series 1 and 2) £450 - yes it's expensive but it's unique - just trying to get my money back!
Let me know if you're interested in any parts and I'll bring them (but I have no room for the bonnet!)

Perhaps we should try this style of selling:

Can we buy the badges to get the updated picture?
I have some 280i bits for a jumble:
3 x fuel regulators
1 x used set of injectors and various tubes
2 x 7 bar fuel pumps
1 x warm up regulator
4 x alloy style centre hubs, 3 with logos! for the 14" telecast wheels
Oh, I also have a new, boxed pair of CIBIE airport 35s, but without the plastic covers.
1 x used rear A frame diff carrier
2 x new boxed solid front disks - postage cost more than the ebay auction!
