 Re: Collection of an engine!!
I can pick it up for you no problems. I can store it here undercover until you can sort out delivery up north. Where is it?

I can pick it up if needed - Ross isn't very far away for me and can keep it in my garage for a period of time

 Re: Collection of an engine!!
That would be great mate, Its on Ebay at the moment and all I have is a postcode which is HR9 7QL, which brings up Old Park Kennels, Gatsford Pitch on the A449...if thats makes any sense?? I'm trying to deal off ebay so I can actually get it rather than being out bid at the last second by some knob heed!!!
I'll let ya know what happens...Thanks Again Matt

I'll let ya know what happens...Thanks Again Matt That certainly makes sense ... if it's who I think it is, he's regularly seen around Ross in a green drum brake 2cv. It's either him, or the local legend with about fifteen rare and interesting 2cvs, Amis and Dyanes. And vans. Let me know if you want me to collect it. Incidentally, the trick with Ebay is not to be outbid by some knob heed, it's to be the knob heed doing the outbidding!

 Re: Collection of an engine!!
It's the guy i bought 8 Ami Super slots off a few years ago - He said it was 'tricky to find' even with SatNav. I told him i'd give him a ring should i get lost...
I followed the SatNav around the outside of 3 fields (thankfully dry) and when i decided to give up & call i realised i had no signal. Luckily after i turned back i bumped into a friendly farmer that pointed me in the right direction!

 Re: Collection of an engine!!
Just stop fannying around looking on Ebay and get yer bloody car finished-I want to see it back on the road! If you're not careful, I'll be paying you a visit and sorting it myself! That's proobably not much of a threat actually is it?
