If anyone can think of a logical way to remove the parts they need I'm all ears. It'll be reversed onto the truck, but although a slight mission I don't see why it couldn't be done!
I've never raised the car up.....I'll check the angle of the rear wheels etc when I jack it up to remove Phil's wheels. Car will be going weekend after next at the latest.....I've already shot myself in the foot by wedging it in my garage

Front bumper (needs TLC)
Interior (seats and doorcards, nearly A1)
Sunroof
Windows
Scuttle panel (paint has lifted slightly)
Front wiper motor
Heater motor
Heater box
Steering rack with arms and pinion/ram
Subframe (looks good)
LHM tank
Skirts and arch spats
All lamps
Various interior trim still not claimed, Matt has claimed all the black stuff!
Anything you need, just pm. I'll try and answer them as I go!

What sort of order is this in; is there much play/floppyness when you try and move the wiper by hand?Kitch wrote:Just to confirm, Matt's claimed the bit I mentioned earlier, so they've gone too.

Sunroofs are interchangable, but interest has been expressed in it already by the Doc and rhv100, although I think he might come up against a brick wall trying tofit it to an estate
Wiper motor has been claimed by Phil.
N/S mirror is now probably gone, as is O/S headlamp.
Cheers

Paul B has claimed the N/S leccy mirror, but lives in Kent. Anyone who's coming down to get anything from around that area? Two birds, one stone etc

They can be refurbed although I've not done it myself. Pretty sure there's a thread on here about it..probably a simple job...jonathan_dyane wrote:What sort of order is this in; is there much play/floppyness when you try and move the wiper by hand?Kitch wrote:Just to confirm, Matt's claimed the bit I mentioned earlier, so they've gone too.

I know I asked a question about it a month or so ago, and was furnished with an excellent reply, but as mine seems very worn I thought having a spare before I start would be a good insurance policy in case it proves irreparable and does not survive the dismantling, and/or I destroy it and am so left wiperless...

The wiper went to Phil in return for a donation to his BXagon fund. It had play, but kermit the frog seemed to know how to overcome it!
Rear window motors have been collected.
Alloys & front wiper assembly have been collected.
Half of Matt's black bits are out, dash is left.
Sunroof is claimed.
N/S leccy mirror is claimed.
Sunroof cable trim and O/S headlamp are claimed.
Struts, H/C's, brakes and more in that area are claimed by Mulley
Anti roll bar's claimed
Updated parts:
We may be able to remove the axle before the car leaves. If anyone wants it, we may be able to remove it on the truck. Having jacked it up to get the rear wheels off, it seemed very tight and smooth and the wheels were at perfect angles. Even the spheres look new.
We also have a twin cooling fan setup available now, aswell as a 16v radiator.
INTERIOR STILL AVAILABLE!!! That's really surprised me; it's easily the highest quality interior the BX ever had!
Bonnet still available
Wings still available
Front bumper, damaged but available
Rear bumper now available
Rear lamps still here
N/S headlamp and both indicators still here
16v gearknob!!! Still here
