Well thats a bloody shame Paul , but at least you found it and managed to get some spares off of it !

Yep indeed.
It is pretty ropy and would need a lot of work as the spring hangers look bad but it has not been repaired over repairs so although has some shocking filler in the corners etc it is probably better than my Jubilee was if stripped back.

The guy will let me know about the carb, but he has someone who may take the whole engine but I have asked him to contact me if this does not happen.

I have been 'persuaded' by my wife that I don't need any more parts of Marina interior 'just now' and so I won't be chasing the guy any longer for me to come down with a van.

So fill your boots guys.

Are all four wheel trims available? Or is it just the three?

Hi Eamonn,
I may pop back for some parts but you are welcome to the seats. All look OK apart from the drivers one which has a small tear.
I will PM you the guys details.
I would suggest you don't leave it long to get in touch and pick the stuff up you want as he is racing it at the end of the month and he will be stripping and preparing the car etc.

I would say this weekend will be the last chance to get anything from it and probably Saturday as they are not always there on the Sundays.

Cheers,
Paul.

Hi Josh, I think all 4 are there if you look at the pictures.
They are not great but if you have none then they are better than that

I would ask Mr Orange Biscuit if he will pick them up for you? As you may be seeing him soon?

Regards,
Paul.

cheers Paul spoke to him today, nice guy, he's gonna text me the address and postcode and i'm going to meet him on sat to get a few bits oh and the hubcaps for josh...
cheers again fella, hope i'll be able to repay the favour one day, buy you a cuppa at peterborough...

JubileeNut · Post by **JubileeNut** » Fri Jul 15, 2011 8:19 pm

A cuppa will do fine

Don't drink much these days :|
I will be there at some point and if I have time I will unbolt the seats from the floor for you.
I understand he is starting to prepare the car on Saturday for racing so this will be the last trip.
But at least we have salvaged some bits from the car

I will PM you a post code which will get you there and a map if I can sort it out.
Cheers,
Paul.
