ftg auto salvage

[Dansedgli]

It was $50 per person + $50 if you wanted to take a wheelbarrow in + $20 if you wanted a guy in a forklift to lift an engine out for you.

well went down to ftg this morning. scored a complete ba motor, genuine BA XR8 side skirts, el ecu and ba shifter and console. all for $120.

cheers corey

You are a fucking liar. There was no BA motors there.

no there was about 4 BA motors and im selling it. only needs alternator and starter motor so if anyone wants to buy a motor for a B series conversion into a E series pm for details.

cheers corey

Will the BA engine butt up to an e series box??

[effaircon]

yeh im pretty sure it will but the bottom 2 bolts wont line up i actually have someone else interested in it atm but if that falls through i will let you know.

There was 3 or 4 BA motors and i just missed out on one, i Spent $80 and got my moneys worth about 4 times over, and the motor i got seems to be pretty healthy. There was lots of little bits and peices that people are always asking for on the forums. I was quite surprised when i saw a coulpe of leather interiors there, An eb ghia series 1 complete leather interior was just sitting inside a car already been un bolted, a cappa leather concord interior and a few others. There were also a couple of 5 litres, If someone picked up a 5 litre conversion for $70, i dont think they would be complaining.

You must have missed the one next to me in the white BA ute with 150,000 on it?...bottom right corner^^^^^^

Was pretty surprised at how much stuff was still out there, saw 2 99 fairlane ghias still with complete leather interior at one stage.
I did alright anyway, ended up grabbing a few accessories off another BA motor and making one complete one ready to go with pcm, loom the whole lot.
Also going to send the GT-P rims off to a mate to have to edges cleaned up and put on a jig to try get the centres straightened, will prob never be good enough to run on a car again but will throw some rubber on them and should look pretty tuff on the boat trailer!
Not bad for half a day and $120 worth of stuff

[josh_ef]

[waghoonEF]

I would of loved the Tickford AU VCT motor they had there, apparently they are pretty hard to put into an EF though. Does anyone know if that ended up going?? It was definetly worth the $50 though.

[MREBXR]

Yeah, the VCT went dude, spotted it at the front gate.

Yeah mate thats all the stuff i could carry out with me, had to ditch a heap of other stuff mainly because i was struggling to carry 4 rims as it was!
Could of spent $200 on ripping parts out of there including a complete black Ghia leather interior that i prob should have gone back in for but am not complaining.

Haha the only car they moved anywhere was the AU XR....You just walked through obviously not paying much attention then shot ya gob off when you thought you knew right.......True?

I asked the guy walking us through if there was any ba's when we couldn't find any. He said yes one and there was a silver sedan with no engine, no interior, nothing. That's the only reason I went princess.

[ford_racing_8]
