Why not buy a 5.7 cv8 for between 10k and 12k and then do some really good mods at monkfish for a 2k and have a bit of cash left over.

I'd rather start with a 6.0 and work up than a 5.7. And I have a 6.0 engine in the garage on the stand (it's to go in my '55 F100, with twins) I can swap bits with smile

How about this?

Was going to have a view of this myself before I bought mine for £12500. Seems in pretty good nick.

Spoke to him on Saturday, offered him cash but didnt seem that bothered about selling it. Been offered a 5.7VXR for £9.5k so there are some cheap cars about if you wait I guess.

I'll give him a ring tomorrow, and see if it's still available. It's in Cardiff, and it's red, and that's pretty much all I know about it!

He's gone quiet on it, will give him another go. It's down at a dealers in the Maltings (behind Littlewoods pools, by the magic roundabout) if you know Cardiff.
