carchaeologist

Banger raced one last week...
Just kidding,im sure is there one for sale on one of the classiccar for sale websites though.

junkyard

I know where there's three of them but i'm not telling you because you'll banger race them.:)

granadamad

want one for the road! not bangering!
half thinking of building a 24v one possibly for drifting but think il do a cortina for that

carchaeologist

Are you bangering anything in rosegreen this year?

granadamad

nope, could be drifting a coupe down there if junkyard shares the info on 3 coupes..hard to believe theres 3 of them lyin up together?

The three cars are in different locations, one, a petrol blue one is in a shed in Monkstown, co. Cork, the second one, a bright red one, is sitting in a driveway in Cork and there's another red one in Cork city centre, I haven't seen it myself but I know two people who have seen it and it supposed to be fairly good. The other two would be good enough for drifting.

granadamad

the red one is gone, i had the lads number for it last year when i was living out foreign and when i came back its gone,



she had bit of rust and missing some trim etc so would have been ideal, cant remember how much he was looking off me for it, somewhere about the grand mark

must go to monkstown in the future to see about the blue one, or does anyone have info on it?

junkyard

Are you sure about the red one? I saw it there about three months ago. I'll ask the owner of the blue one if it's still there, i'll see him during the week.

granadamad

99% sure yea, is it the one ive pictured?
il check my emails, think it is gone though

Big Nasty

Saw this minter in Citywest last weekend:


Too busy looking at the car to check the price! :rolleyes:

Redrocket

whats the bets if he doesnt banger race it he'll scrap it! :P

That red one is now half way through a restoration. I knew the previous owner well, and that picture was taken in his driveway.

I've seen pictures of the bare shell restoration, and when it's finished, it'll be nice (and according to the pictures, when the crud was cleaned off, it wasn't too bad)

Carina

Just off topic but is there any banger racing around the Dublin area anymore ? Used to go to Santry every Sunday but that finished when the go cart racing started.

good stuff, she did look a little rough in the detail pics, i did think there would be lots of rust under here but ya just cant tell some times!

oflynno

are you looking to buy one?

i bumped into a few on the cortina quest

granadamad

yea but not looking at spending a few grand!
would like to get one for under a grand and priced in mind of its condition!
so one needing some body work would suit me, good interior would be nice or even just if it had good coupe specific parts i could source the rest, ie good rear door interior and that

anything you spotted fit the bill?

thanks

oflynno

no the ones i saw were immaculate finished and around 4 grand

granadamad

if i had the funds maybe!
