CoxyLaad 0 Posted July 1, 2005 Anyone owned this motor? its a midnight blue G60 corrado, and its now mine! Bought it from North East Motor Salvage yesterday for a small sum of cash. Got it to strip - did I mention it got something like a stage 4 charger on it, and full black leather interior? yippee! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted July 1, 2005 Sigh. Another one stripped for parts. Whats actually wrong with it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoxyLaad 0 Posted July 1, 2005 I am with on this one Jim, I dont strip cars to make money, on the contrary I do it to obtain parts - no profiteering here :D This is whats wrong with it - and this is the good side, the rear has been next to some extremem heat and has melted all the plastics, the is a dent/scrape that runs the full length of the other side, someone has not been very careful with it! Its perfect for me, as with my car being an ex stripped out track racer it is missing lots of daft things like clips and fixings etc, stuff which is worthless tomost people, yet most people will happily try to take my eyes out.... So this one dies so that mine can be absolutely factory perfect :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted July 1, 2005 looks like aqua blue pearl a bit.... what are you doing with the interior mate? :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoxyLaad 0 Posted July 1, 2005 lc5u is the code I think probablies is aqua pearl - didnt take that much notice to be honest - irrelevant to me as my car is yellow! interior is not for sale I am afraid - like I said this was not aquired for profiteering! Although I may be being a little greedy as I have a set of coth electric recaros too :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted July 1, 2005 yep...aqua blue pearl if i recall. mmmmmm cloth recaros........if you decide to sell an interior let me know. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoxyLaad 0 Posted July 1, 2005 will do what I plan to do is get the front recaros retrimmed to match the rest of the leather interior. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted July 1, 2005 Ah - fair enough mate - that car looks suitably screwed enough to warrant being split for parts. For some reason I had visions of something with a small ding on the bumper and it immediately being set upon for parts ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoxyLaad 0 Posted July 3, 2005 no its pretty well munched. would take lots and lots of body work to repair. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roger Blassberg 0 Posted July 4, 2005 I would be interested in the roof strips if they are good. Best wishes RB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoxyLaad 0 Posted July 4, 2005 depends what you mean by very good - they have had the usual flappy bit trimmed off Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roger Blassberg 0 Posted July 5, 2005 Thanks for the reply - no, I particularly want good flappy bits as mine have perished and crumbled.... Best wishes RB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supercharged 2 Posted July 5, 2005 Roger, the only way to get good ones will be to buy new from GPC i'm afraid... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roger Blassberg 0 Posted July 5, 2005 That's good news ! I just called and they have them. £33 plus vat each side is criminal for what they are, but cheaper than VAG. Best wishes RB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
