    3B rolling shell - keep an eye

    I was going to buy Azman's CQ20 shell and transplant my 3B into it instead of fixing the bodywork but common sense (wife) has prevailed. I don't have the space or time right now. But if anyone sees a decent 3B shell with subframes, diffs, suspension and wiring loom intact can you let me know please? I could have the engine and bits dropped in and move the interior across without risking divorce. maybe. something in Scotland preferred but not essential.
    I know it's a long shot so if nothing appears i'll still be fixing the body work.

    cheers

    Matey, The shell is still available.......

    It has taken me and my mate three days to transplant the subframes, gearbox and rear diff and at the same time do all teh bushes and mounts etc. Do all teh top mounts and everything else that nees doing along the way, quite literally coming to the end of the third day today (rainprvailing) and the thing is ready to roll minus a few bits I need fabing

    A rolling 3B shell with all that on will cost you a bomb

      I feared that could be the case mate. In all honesty i'd love to take your shell but i'm a total amateur and don't have a garage. I'm so tempted but I reckon I could very easily end up out of my depth. If I had a decent sized garage I'd maybe take it on and take my time but there will be no enjoyment to it if i'm under pressure from the weather and the wife or have to go a bit of distance to a rented garage. damn. I'm probably just being daft. my shell just needs that corner fixed and a bit of lovin to bring it up.
      If nothing else i hate the idea of your shell being scrapped though. aghh!

        awwww, you've got me thinking again now. I'm going to re-propose it to the missus and see if she tears me a new hole.
