RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Eeyore - 15-01-2015
Right update on this! Now that I have the Saab the plans for this have changed. As cheap as it would have been and even though much of the work had been done the deal on my £40 rear beam fell through. I could have bought another but I am tired of putting time and money into this so with slight regret it will be broken and scrapped.
The following will be removed and used on the track project...
Front Bumper
Slam Panel
NS Wing
Seam welded subframe
Brand new Meyle HD wishbones
Other parts will be sold so expect a breaking thread soon.

that's a shame srowell, but when you reach the point where enough is enough, its got to go. bit of an idea, can you not keep the running gear from this? and put it into the 5 door when you reshell that? that way you can sell the old shell on as a Hdi,

Its a thought but I dont have enough time. Fairly sure nobody would buy a hdi that used to be a 1.8. Maybe Toms306 would enjoy a project though haha.

you maybe surprised, a few cars on here that used to be a gti now powered by a derv lump, could be a good one for tom, reshelling a stage one HDi,
if me and my dad can swop over running gears with in a day srowell, surely you could do this conversion. in fact it might be easier, with the 306.
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - WiNgNuTz - 15-01-2015
Shame tbh, i might have considered doing you a deal on the whole thing.
In fact, how about that? I'll swap you one broken 306 estate for a nicer colour broken 306 estate?

No... because essentially id be swapping the entire car just for your headlights
Its honestly worth more to me for the good bits off it guys. Already had enough of Niall and grant offering 50p for it..
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - WiNgNuTz - 15-01-2015
Dude, I'd be keeping the headlights! Got the crystals in the garage!

Yes but once youve sold the front bumper, scrapped it and sold the seats youre at that number already. Its worth more in parts. Stop trying to convince me its a good offer. It is... but its not the best way to make money.
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Niall - 15-01-2015
Oh my bad. Just given him a warning for not selling me the estate and accidentally banned him

RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Niall - 15-01-2015

Sams 1.8 shell isn't in the best condition tbh, lots of laquer peel etc so it wouldn't be worth using for a reshell. Though I may have the engine off him if I can find another DTurbo spec with a snapped cambelt.
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Eeyore - 16-01-2015
What? There is no lacquer peel on it at all Tom! Is blindness a problem for you now?
It has a bit of peel the size of a penny on the roof which I have relacquered!
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Toms306 - 16-01-2015
Oh is that all? Sure there was a larger bit after some jetwashing?

Rear bumper which has been replaced with a mint one now!

I can personalise vouch for the lacquer peel as i remember you telling me not to direct the pressure washer at it again
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Eeyore - 02-06-2015
Neighbours have complained about this sitting around so it has been promised that it will be gone by the end of the month. Not much left on it worth saving now but it is valuable storage space. Need to work out a way to move it out of a car port with no beam and subframe!
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Dum-Dum - 02-06-2015
4 castors on a wooden frame made of 2" x 4". I've got one and it's fine for pushing stripped cars about on, just gotta get the balance point right.
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Toms306 - 02-06-2015
Empty shells are light enough to move anyway...
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Seb_Ryan - 02-06-2015
Trolley jacks.. But be bloody careful lol
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Toms306 - 02-06-2015
Honestly, 2 people can drag an estate shell no problem. Or just rope it to another car and tow it. I've done both...
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Dum-Dum - 03-06-2015
If you pay my fuel I'll come up and chop it into little bits after FCS

Pop down to costco/makro and pickup a few litres of veg.

Salvaged lots of bits from it and I know Bash is getting a few bits out of it. His gran I think is getting the engine in her 206.

Cant believe you didn't take the tow bar off to sell

He didn't have to take it off. Im having it
Also yeah this is for my grandmas car. Engines going in hers then the book that picked it up for me is loading it with scrap and taking it to scrappy for me. Its a shame really.
RE: SRowell's Stage 1 Diablo HDi Estate - Toms306 - 14-06-2015
Definitely got your moneys worth from it Sam, I remember when you bought it 3 years ago! Helped me out of a tight spot back then as well.
Bye raceestate...
