That\'s a shame, is there anyone else one this thread looking to attend Rotorstock?

It would be really good to have some 1st Gen\'s on show.  The only one I know for sure is Roger, he does not post on here but had the white FB at Brooklands.

And if the FC is rare too - guess what, got one of them as well.  This is my next project waiting in the wings so to speak - this is stored outside but under total tarpaulin cover.

Quote from: captainbizzaro;707412Liam I went to RXMotors today to pick up a brake calliper and he has a series 3 up on his ramp at the moment that he "found" in his top shed (love that place) which I\'d guess he is prepping to sell. And it\'s white.

On my christmas list is a big shed that FB\'s magically morph from.

sorry for late reply!
I want one of those sheds also :p

since seeing the white (well more cream colour) one in somerset (which i saw again today), think it might be an elford as it had the deep front bumper, not pointly like typical fb. i SO WANT THAT ONE!
i dont know much about fb\'s but believe the elfords had:
pepper pot wheels
whale tail spoiler
deep front bumper.

not sure what else, turbo? but cant really look under hood if its driving along lol

The green one in somerset was £850 reserve. i\'m sure he would drop a few quids if you turned up with cash. even if it was less ebay fees.

Talking about scrap, if they buy for a couple hundred quid, i think they can still make some money on it.
Remember, older cars are made of metal not plastic so would fetch higher price.
2 doritos on a stick woohoo :rollin

I\'ll be at RS7 with my FB I just need a convoy partner or two for security in numbers! Am travelling from north dorset if anyone is interested in sorting something out.

L18M

if i get my fc on the road by then, then i will be up for it.
Security? in case you get car jacked? or break down? lol

No, I\'ll be on security duty....Otherwise when everyone gets back home all the FC\'s, FD\'s and 8\'s will have peeped into our 1st Gen Section and posted rude things about us.    :Nono!

Don\'t shoot the messenger if it turns out to be no good, but this Gold Elford was for sale near Wembly a few times in 2009 and 2010. It has been standing for a few years. (Haven\'t all the FB\'s?). It never seemed to make its reserve.....which wasn\'t that much L18M.
The seller was called Ted and he sounded OK to me.
I still have his contact details if you\'re interested in a project. BUT WARNING, THIS COULD BE A MONEY PIT WAITING FOR SOME POOR SOUL TO FALL INTO??

Didn\'t it make over a grand once and then the sale fell through?

Yes it did, then it was relisted, sold for a few hundred less but that also fell through due to \'timewasters\'? I\'ve asked the Seller if he did sell in the end, (for my own interest), but no reply as yet.
