Need a venue/assistance to strip met grey TZD estate

Post by DLM »

"Silver machine" (my 17TZD Turbo estate, K-reg) has reached the end of its useful life (problems with that reddy-orange stuff, amongst others) . I don't have facilites to strip/scrap for parts - and it's mainly the ABS-specific stuff I want as I'm pretty overburdened with BX bits and pieces. Please PM If you have drive/garage/barn space that could be used to dissect it for the common good. Time is short.
Back on two wheels and pedal power for the moment.

If you can get it to Stroud I'll do the rest if that helps?
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

You are most welcome mate.
Although Manchester is along way to come for a car breaking session!!

It would ideally need to be stripped and flatpacked in a weekend given the sheer volume of cars, buses and plant on site at the moment, but I can totally gut a car on my own in one day given the need, so with a few hands on deck we should be in the pub by lunch!

Stroud's not too bad as long as it's not rush hour, and I think I'm overdue to meet some other BX owners anyway! :)

Can't help with the dismantelling bit, but i'm really keen to get hold of the black plastic piece which sits at the front of the radiator where the bonnet support pole clips into. Mines bust on the turbo, & the rad flaps about which cant be doing it any good.

Let me know about a price DLM & p&p to Chesterfield area please.

Thanks

Doc - I'll give you a call to arrange - Stroud should be doable. I'm busy this Saturday a.m. but is Sunday a possibility? Thanks for offers of support - I'll post more details. The interior is currently a hybrid mix of DTR (black chevronny trim) and TZD.
